    Excuse the minor knowledge I have....

    Lowering, what is and isnt legal in WA?

    Also is it possible for someone to post pics of lowered VX's (a couple of different ones, different heights) so I'm able to compare? Or point me into the correct thread, as I cant seem to find one.

    Thanks :D

    Legal:

    100mm+ ground clearance @ lowest point
    retain 2/3 factory suspension travel
    Correct springs for car
    Suspension and wheels dont foul guards, inner gaurds, etc.


    Not Legal:

    Cut springs
    Less that 100mm clearance
    Wrong springs for wrong car (VS springs in VT, etc)
    Suspension or wheel touching stuff under load, full lock, etc
    Less than 2/3 suspension travel of factory setup.


    Generally all the above is under the ADR umbrella thus is the same across all states.

    Correct me if im wrong.

    Have a look @ my old car to see a fairly low setup... not really legal.

    Cheers
