[Sleeper_Teg]

hey guys, the more i look at my car the more i keep thinking if it's not as high as other integras i've seen with a stock suspension. i dunno if it's just me or does it look a little bit lower than it's supposed to be? and if it looked like that, would a drop of 1.75" in the front and 1.5" in the rear (h&r sports) fix the wheel gap problem if i went with 16s? or should i just get ground controls where i could possibly drop it 2" or so both front and rear? thanks.

*p.s. sorry for the uncleanliness she'll be getting a washing later today =D*

Looks fine to me. I'd advise against a 1.75" drop, that's pretty severe. Maybe something more subtle like 0.75"? Mine is lowered 0.5" and it closes the wheel gap just enough:

 

[white4drTeg]

here is mine on stock ride height, looks about the same as yours. I am also considering the drop but dont know about winter. And I have heard that adjustable coil-overs rust so you cant adjust them after like a year

 

[Sleeper_Teg]

yeah but i wanna get some bronze rota c8s in 16s then paint the teg nighthawk black pearl. here's a pic of some 16s and a h&r sport drop. would that look okay?

Daniel, your Teg looks sick!

GSRGuy, the paint on your GSR looks awesome! I wish mine was in that good of shape! Ahh, but the previous owner kinda beat it up and she has scratches and some dings. C'est la vie.....

If you're looking at considering different drops, why not get some Ground Control Coilovers? That way, you can play with different heights.

Just a suggestion....

16" Rota Sub-Z's w/ stock ride height. I think it needed a drop. Everyone else told me it needed a drop, too.

Here's the same car w/ H&R Sports...

what about mine?

just kidding

and that isnt daniels car i dont think, those are the rims and height he wants

 

[Sleeper_Teg]

yeah that isn't my teg, i wish tho

thanks for the replies fellas.

--edit--
rex-7 what kinda series tires are those?

 

[blackgsrguy]

yeah that looks about stock height. i used the eibach prokit (1.3) and its just perfect, i can even drive in the winter with 15"

Old and busted

New hotness

Yours looks lower than mine did with the stock suspension. Could be the lip and side skirts playing with my mind though.

If I can find a tape measure in the apartment I will measure sombody's stock ride height for you.

the good 'ol days...

 

[Sleeper_Teg]

guitar how much did u drop your teg? looks clean

 

[Teggyman]

1.75 up front really isn't doing much. I dropped my teg 2.5 up front and 1.25 in the rear with Tanabe springs and sitting on 17's...

 

[Furious05]

Your ride height looks abour right for stock. Here is the Pro-kit 1.3 drop. No camber kit needed.

 

[integradriver13]

furious.. that looks like a good drop for stock rims... not to much... just about right...

now on some 17+ you need a shorter fender gap...

 

[PapaDizzle]

hey chris, your bumper lights look great, they would match my headlights perfectly. what kind of bulbs or LED setup are you using? PM me plz

 

[PapaDizzle]

doh, i just saw the link below your post. cancel that chief

 

[Logik]

I was looking at getting those Eibach pro springs, and I was wondering if I did that:

a) Would I need a camber kit? (I have 17" rims if that matters)
b) Would my tires rub at full turn?
c) Could I go over speedbumps without doing it one wheel at a time?

I'm assuming the answers are no, no, yes, but just checking.

 

[AlvinHuyN]

one more for pro kit

It was actually Chris who inspired me to use pro kit springs (1.3 inch drop all around)

 

[Jngrbrdman]

Now that looks the best yet. I haven't dropped mine yet but it sort of needs a little help. When you put 17s on the car it closes in the wheel gap but it raises the middle of the car up. It makes it look weird. I've never had a problem with the stock height. I'd probably have a hard time getting in and out of my driveway in the winter if I dropped it. Its kind of low on my priority list. It definitely looks good. I'll probably do it sometime after I move out of this house.
