    Default Project VN ... Help on mods!!?

    G'day guys,
    just picked up a cheap VN off a deceased estate for $750 which runs great!
    Going to be a project car.
    Here is a pic of my old VN, which I cut the springs in - (took off 3.5 coils):



    Illegal, dangerous and too low.

    So for this new one, I've gotten a deal my old mans friend who's a mechanic who will do me a deal for $286 for Monroe GT Lowered Rear Shocks + My Choice of Super Low OR Ultra Low Rear King Springs for the same price whichever I choose.
    I want the car to be low, but not ridiculous like my previous car.
    So If I were to get Ultra Lows, would be car be so low that it's illegal?

    I had super lows in my OLD VN before I cut the stock springs as it still looked very stock with the Super Low King Springs hence why I was stupid and got my stock springs and took the angle grinder to them.

    So Ultra lows, will it be legal height? etc etc =)

    hey mate when i got my vp s i had the standard springs that came with the S (sorry forgot the name of the springs) anyway they are lower than standard. i then went to super low lovells, it looked great handled ok but eventually got sick of draggin on the floor, and replacing parts that where scraped through. The police use to follow me home all the time, i was never pulled over and i was thankful of that cause i would have been defected for it. so now i changed back to the standard S springs and i am happy how it sits

    this is a picture with the car on S springs and a full tank of gas

    Do Front and rears, otherwise dont waste your time because it looks shit and handles like arse with stock front springs and lowered rears...
    Do it properly or not at all

    Superlow fronts, Ultralow rears with gas tank and sub


    Super lows front and rear
