I ordered a set of coilovers a few weeks ago and it has been sitting in my house for a long time. After ordering, initially I planned on putting them on in the spring, but the wait is killing me.

Can you guys post pics of your lowered sedans? Please mention how low did you drop and how often do you scrape.

PS: This is not my DD, so I changed my initial plan and thinking of dropping it before the winter.

 

This is about the mildest drop on Tanabe springs, about an inch F&R

 

And a couple more

 

Here's a couple threads too~

Big one on 35driver, it's G35s but 2nd gens so the looks are the same

Thanks a lot for the info. I guess I'll just go ahead and drop it already.

 

No problem.
Most COs are set up pretty low in the back, even at their highest setting. If you want the mildest drop I'd set up the rear first, leave about 1/4" more than the spring thickness on the rear adjustment collar. Once you get the rear set to it's highest setting then adjust the front height so it will be even or slightly lower. The one look you DON'T want is the front higher than the back. My COs even at their highest setting drops about 1.5" in back FWIW. Maybe your particular COs have a higher starting point but in general that's the way most are set up.

 

this is mine,
lowered on D2 Racing Coilovers.
I do scrape on some speed bumps.

I lowered it to where the top of the wheel wells both front and back at 26" from the ground.

 

Same as above, I do scrape on some speed bumps but usually when I go too fast over them. I'm a little over 1.3 inches in the front, and 1 inch in the rear.
