Lowered car, I think....

**Unr3al** · 03-10-2013

So I did the whole lowering springs thing like I am sure a lot of people have done... the front, is.... was nice (hit massive crater at 35ish mph on lovely Cleveland streets, blew out a top mount, a new one, within a half mile, car is undriveable atm) but to the thing I need help with.... Looking at my car in front of me at the moment the back of the car seems.... higher. Then stock. Springs were the correct springs, did this project before on another GP. So on that note, What gives? What could I have messed up or over looked? Ideas are appreciated. Although with the car in its current stance, it will launch awsomely <---new word<--- with little tire slippage. Just looks, retarded.

What brand of springs?

**Unr3al** · 03-10-2013

1 7" Drop Suspension lowering Spring 97 03 Pontiac Grand Prix V6 GT SE GTP Blue | eBay

Used these before and got awesome immediate results, and after settling in, approx 2.4 inch total drop (and better times at the track according to the guy who paid me 100 bucks to put them in)
Of coarse I have no such luck on my own whip.

I thought DNA springs hardly lowered the car?

Also; I'd never buy EBay based springs for my car...nor should you IMO.

Eibach, SSC, Intrax, B&G...

I had those DNA springs and the rear hardly settled at all...front lowered 1.5 rear maybe .5 its the springs

**Unr3al** · 03-11-2013

My front dropped about 2". I am working the little mods in on a budget, sadly the Eibach, SSC, Intrax, B&G would put me over. Otherwise, I would get them.

Cheap isn't always the best route.

and usually the worst route.

**blueguy** · 03-12-2013

I'm the king of cheap and I wouldn't ever buy DNA springs.

**addzradd** · 03-12-2013

Mine still sits up in the rear compared to the front on my WBS springs. Cleveland can be a ***** for anything lowered though, I'm thinking of going back to stock height.

i understand complaining about roads, but EVERYWHERE has bad roads. you're in one of two groups:

a) those that deal with it
b) those that whine

Coming from 16 years in Detroit Metro to 5 now in the Atlanta Metro, I disagree.

They repave perfectly good roads down here for reasons unknown.

**Bio248** · 03-12-2013

because they don't have to repair them so often.

my city is full of potholes, giant grooves, constantly swerving lanes, and people that gangster drive everywhere.
