Problem is that the QA1's at that ride height go into spring coil bind and if it has stock height spindles, the front suspension geometry goes out of wack. The lower a arm to subframe bolts should never be lower than the pivot axis of the lower ball joint. It looks cool but handling sucks. Do you want looks or predictable handling?
Ill try to get pics of mine later.
