I finally got my car lowered! It was an adventure for sure, but I'm happy with the results. It's lowered with B&G coilovers.

BEFORE:




AFTER:






Nothing too special, but I'm just glad its done! Next on my list: Injen CAI? Any other suggestions for my 2nd mod?

 

100% improvement. Looks wayyyy better. Nice job man

 

damn thats a huge difference, your setting up your car perfect. intake, headers, exhaust all my suggestions

or paint the breaks, and shave

 

looks way sick

 

Looks nice man. Now you just gotta get a nice exhaust and your set.

 

ya its a pretty drastic change. these coilovers give up to a 3 inch drop. i was considering painting the calipers, but im not sure. i think intake first, then exhaust later. or is it better to do it all in one shot?

 

probly intake first tho it doesnt really matter, intakes cheaper, and the breaks for sure you cant go wrong with redness

 

so who finally installed it? maybe my next mod.

 

drop the coil overs as low as you could and take pics, ballin'

 

man why arent all cars lowered from factory, oh yah winter , meh, thats what old school tercels and trucks are for lol

 

Nice job man

If you want to drop the rears the full 3" all you need to do is remove the height adjustment shell and rings underneath the springs, and just let the springs sit on the hats. Will drop you a good 1/2 - 1".

 

holy huge drop

 

Any idea how much that has affected your front camber? I actually want the camber change on mine because it's going to the track as soon as the B&Gs are put on, but the camber plates aren't available yet.

 

Nice!!! I was blown away by the difference in appearance with my black 2.2L with the SSCs.

Trim the mudflaps!

 

IAC. in woodbridge. nice guys

i'm not sure of the actual numbers, but the cambering isnt significant. i'm getting the camber plates when they come out though.

Is that safe? Have you done it to yours? and I checked your image gallery, your car looks awesome.

 

Yes I have, car has barely a fingers clearance in the rear, and half a a fingers clearance in the fronts.

Perfectly safe

You can remove the bump stop portion, and just leave the rubber for noise cancelation.

And thank you, spent a lot of time on that car lol...

 

dayum that looks awesome i want B&G coilovers for my ion

 

sorry to bring this thread back to life but when you turn to the left or the right does it make a clunking noise? I have these installed on my car too and I think it is the end links but i'm not sure.
