People with Ground Control Coilovers please come in... I currently have the pro kit with KYB shocks and want to get the GC coilovers for my 18" wheels which are on the way. I was wondering how people like the GC kit and how much lower it would allow me to go.
My pro kit originally said 1" drop, but after the springs settled it was more like 1 1/4" or 1 1/2" drop. I mainly want to be able to "SLAM" the car for car shows and then raise it up to a reasonable driving height.
Pics of people rides with the GC kit would be great.
Thanks in advance

Re: People with Ground Control Coilovers please come in... Perhaps you missed something on the GC website.
The ride height is adjustable. High/low or in between is user discretion.

Re: People with Ground Control Coilovers please come in... I tallows for about 2-2.5" of adjustment. As far as my satisfaction with the kit goes.....?
It rocks, for the money I couldn't be happier. However if I were spending the money all over again, I might spend the extra $800 to $1K and go with the LG kit (can't remember the exact price of that kit). I have mine lowered about 1.5 & 1.5 and I got plenty of pics in the sig of both the car and the GC kit. <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

Re: People with Ground Control Coilovers please come in... I got a set a few months back and installation was easier than I thought. For the $$ you cant beat them, IMO. Im glad I made the purchase. We I installed them first, I "spun" them to their lowest setting and worked up from there. It is pretty low at its' lowest setting. Hope this helps. Something is squeaking and it is driving me crazy... it may be from the ball joints in the front I dont know. I don't think it has anything to do with the coilovers themselves.
