(ive been told there arent springs to do this, but im just double checking)heres how it sits, I ideally want another 1" drop on rear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont use polish, shes a track sh*tter now in retirement (soon to be back into racing). gets mothers californian gold and that's it lol.

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 29/12/09 02:41 AM Share Posted 29/12/09 02:41 AM (edited) I would say no, from what I have seen inside them. But anything is possible. It's not just the sleeve? You will have about 2 inches of travel left if that.You will have to dial in so much rebound, your shock will just basically pack up. Not too mention heat issues. What is your ride hight now, bout 35cm. They are using mine on the front page of this site. I am running 35.cm ride hight with 1.5 neg. And I have 2.5cm left to wind down on mine as you can see in the pic's. Also my 3/4 bumps are just touching as it is.So for mine 33cm would be as low as I would go with the Teins.Maybe 20" rims is what you need to fill the guards. Sorry if they are. FG's guards are hard to fill lolWish we were ADR'd with 20x35'sAsk Pat he will know Ps sweet ride Pps Lower springs is not the go with the damper you have.
