Default Question about Dropp

hi
this is my teg

for some reason im not happy with the dropp, i think the front isint low enough,
im simply lowered on stock shocks with neuspeed race,
i was woundering when i change my shocks will that change the height even though the shocks might not be height adjustable?
i dont think so but ill wait for your answers, and if not would cutting the springs be too much?? anyone here that is really low in the front have some big issues with a big drop? like oil pan or downpipe hitting etc...
thx

if you drove the car with them on for at least a few weeks then i think they would have already settled.But dont take my word for it because im not 100% on it.

Get Koni Yellow shocks. My friends went through the same thing. They were not satisfied with their drop so they got Koni Yellows and set the silver ring to its lowest setting. Now they are content with their ride height.

The height of your car is so high because of your huge damn wheels. I'm running the Neuspeed race springs with 15's and my car is slammed. Look at any Integra with 17's...their car sits a good 6 inches off the ground, even with the tires tucked.

LOL...Ha your lucky. After my neuspeed race springs settled in, I was slammed to the ground w/the gsr stock rims. I bought some new tires and now my car is higher . I used to have Kumho 195/50/15's then I got Kumhos Ecsta Supras 195/55/15 and I HATE them. The tires are so fat .(the tires are great tires, its just the size/height) Some guy at the tire place was saying how 195/50/15 is incorrect for my car!!???

guy at the tire place is correct, oem tire size for the integra is 195-55-15. some people go with 205-50-15 which makes the tire wider so they get a bigger foot print, I prefer to stick with the stock size.
