Mugen Lowdown pic request

Looking for a pic of an ITR running mugen lowdown suspension, preferably w/ stock or 15 inch rims so I could see how low the car would actually be lowered compared to stock. Also can ya give me some feedback on the performance of these bad boys. (I did a search found some stuff but no pics or real reviews)

Edit: dammit I spelled request wrong in the original post

Re: Mugen Lowdown pic request (hooptie157)

It looks stock and you can not notice it unless you put a stock one and the modified one next to each other. There is the famous pic of my Yellow ITR right next to TJ's and you can see the difference. It looks like I'm ready to rally.

Len, who misses his PY, but got a NBP to play with now.

They rate it at 20mm, but it really is 20mm unlike the Spoon Progressive springs which tends to be more.

Re: Mugen Lowdown pic request (Mr Milano)

The drop is 3/4 of an inch. From the pics ive seen it gets rid of the wheel gap pretty well. From the reviews ive read they do pretty well, the only thing negative ive heard about them is for the price they should be height adjustable and a lot of other full coilover systems can be bought for less, ie tein, zeal etc.

When you buy into a name like King/Mugen or Spoon, it's part of their arrogance that they believe they already know what height your car should be and how you should be using it.

Also non-adjustable suspensions aren't necessarily a bad thing since 99% of people with adjustable suspension just use it to "slam" their cars.

If I'm not mistaken, TJ didn't have the Mugen suspension on when the pics were taken on atlantaimports.com.

You are correct. Those pics Hooptie posted are when my car was stock. The last pic posted with the CF hood are with the Mugen lowdowns. Also check my NOPI pics (final page) for another pic of my car with the lowdowns. In person you can tell a pretty nice difference. When Len parks his stock ITR next to mine you can tell the difference...I'll take some pics tomorrow at work of our cars next to each other.

Oh and Hooptie, please take own that pic with me in it. Thanks.
