i wanna lower my vn, its got the fe2 suspension on it now. i only wanna lower it another inch to inch 1/2. can i keep the fe2 and just get shortened coils or does it all have to change. oh and i aint cutting 'em hell no.
ANY suggestions?
be patient. most of the experts are probably off watching tv or in bed or something. and yeah, im pretty sure NOONE on this board will recommend cutting them
1995 Manual HSV Clubsport
Wade Cam :: 9.2:1 CR :: Pacemaker headers :: Twin 2.5" Exhaust :: VT Brakes
1991 Supercharged VN Berlina
9 PSI SC14 Intercooled :: Genie headers :: Twin cats :: HM Twin 2.25 exhaust :: 3.45:1 LSD
yeh i've just replaced all my rear suspension brackets and trailing arms due to being stupid around a roundabout, dont really recommend it.
sooo........ any ideas?
just wait till someone replies...
You could get them compressed 1/2 an inch. Not too sure on price, maybe about $35 a spring?
kilowatts are like drugs, the more you get, the more you want.
yeah, cutting them is a silly idea as thats when you get rice bounce :P
by FE2 u mean it has the FE2 shocks and springs yeah??
how does the car sit? too high at either end?
because %90 of commodores sit too high at the rear, maybe you could just get new rear springs... as holden donst supply any springs under FE2 u will have to get a aftermarket brand like king springs or pedders
yeah so tell us if its sitting too high at the rear or front
dont mean to be pushy, just want to get it done soon.
here's a pic so u guys can decide yourself, i basically want the top of the guards to sit a bit lower than the top of the tires, front and rear.
whoa thats alot of tyre shine dude, anyway get some king springs superlows, about $220, and get some shortend shocks, king spring lows are fe2 equivalant, so go super lows or ultra lows, amke sure you get shortend shocks
yep super lows will sit like that, they dont cost $220, they cost $120 for a rear pair, there is a retailer on ebay, $8 delievery anywhere in australia, and u can probbly fit them your self, mines on supers all round (see pic)
ive dealt this this shop before and its reliable

note they also have a shop front, u dont have to bid on ebay, u can call them up or what ever u want
cheapest for springs ive seen there was a thread about him, they were gonna do a group buy or something
good luck =D (btw shouldnt need to change that panhard rod, as your only dropping the rear about a inch if that)
