How low on standard shocks

[Tink170292]

Ive always kept my saxo at standard ride height but how low do you guys think is ok before having to change shocks etc

[Baz]

50mm I was on for 5 years on standard shocks, from about 30k to 90k

Did it handle ok or shite??

Be honest bazzle.

[MartinObviously]

I wouldn't lower more than Prickle's car on standard shocks. :y:

[Tink170292]

I was thinking 40mm that should be ok then yeah?

No mate.

Op 40mm will be fine, few people run 60mm on them.

god knows, unless you can test it properly with doing the same corners at same speed in same conditions you'll never really know for sure.

Seemed alright though, got me round Silverstone & Rockingham lol :y:

Rates will be wrong. unless you buy lowering springs the same rate

Ok thanks also if im putting a disc brake rear axle on my furio should i put a vtr master cylinder on?

[Gordzilla]

I would say 30mm, no more.

Lowered cars ( on standard suspension ) handle like shit.

to cut costs, springs should be fine, if handling isnt your top priority (on a road car for example)
