not sure how much lower mine is but i've never scraped the sump. Biggest problem i found with a slammed VR is the CAT scraping on everything. If you want to go lower than -50mm you've got bin it. Only real problem i have is unexpected dips in the road causing the front wheels to hit the arch liners and the front spoiler to touch the road.

 

Oooh and the wishbones and subframe collect grass if i have to park on it.

furkz how much have you lowered yours now fella? oh and here's my drop on 16's soon to be lowered on my new polished RH's she's pretty low on the front already to be honest can just fit hand under but running 45 profile at mo so 40's is gonna give me another few mill! then the backs gonna get slammed! had to raise it 10mm due to awfull island roads as running the 9's at mo! referring to lee's earlier comment mine hits my decat even now lee! im just gonna go for a total straight through eventually so nothing is hanging lower than the floor pan!

iow_corrado_g60, what ya doin we the borbets mucka?

[iow_corrado_g60 0]

they're gonna have a radical overhaul in the summer! want something someone hasnt done to the borbets then they will be my summer wheels thats all in the long term plan thou! its not gonna be black and polished either! unless what i want done costs loads then i might sell them! but at mo the edges are just in need of a refurb from the old owner io must add!

[g60greeny 0]

well keep me in mind if ya do sell,u know its wrong to have two nice sets of wheels :-P
