If they are like my subframe connecters, they are tucked up very nicely. If those touch, then the steel where the side g-effects hook up will scrape. I dont know about your subframes, but mine are hardly seen by looking underneath

you can see how low the duals hung to the ground i scraped EVERYWHERE
now BMR one in drop all around:
and now it sits now perfect ride height for me and no scraping

Camaro Z your stance looks killer....
I'm worried about lowering with my headers....it appears as if the Y-pipe under my car has about 3" of clearance right now at stock height....is it possible to lower?

If you have hookers like me, they are actually the same height, if not tucked up better than stock mani's with y. If you have SLP headers, GOOD LUCK!

I am having alot of scraping problems with my sportlines. Due to a set of headers and a x-pipe. Thus, they are comming off, and Im gonna go with a drag suspension setup next! But i do love the way my car's stance is

Need lowering spring pictures I am the co-owner of an automotive shop and we use the Eibach Pro-Kit that is built for GMMG, Inc. With the exception of my '02 ZL1 shown below, we have lowered all the other Camaros with this particular Pro-Kit.
This is my 2002 Phase II ZL1 Supercar. GMMG lowered it with the Pro-Kit (as they did with all 2002 ZL1's) when they originally modified it and also added Spoon lower control arm relocation brackets. I have also boxed in the stock lower control arms and added Don Goetz bolt-in sub-frame connectors.
This is my 1997 30th Anniversary Camaro SS convertible. It has also been lowered with the GMMG/Eibach Pro-Kit. I have also added the Spoon lower contol arm relocation brackets, boxed-in the stock lower control arms, added Don Goetz bolt-in sub-frame connectors and replaced the stock 16X8 wheels with the stock 17X9 wheels. SLP would not put 17X9 wheels on the convertibles due to a loss of ride quality because of the shorter sidewall on a P275/40R17 vs. a P245/50R16 tire.
The rest of the photographs below are pics of Camaros we have lowered at my shop with the GMMG/Eibach Pro-Kit.
Hope this helps you in your decision making process ! ! ! !
