How low is too low?

[ThreeTwo]

Firstly good to see this forum up and running - thanks to all those who put the time and effort into developing it.

A good few months ago I parked my Carrera next to Rich Simpsons and I saw his car was lower than mine and looked alot better - so mine had to go down.

Having a son who is a Porsche tech means he does all the work on my car so I asked him to lower mine. Any of you who know Mike and have seen his Bugs will know he likes them slammed - so I had to warn him and even threaten him not to go too far with mine!

I asked for 15-20mm. He went 45mm!! Have to say he did a proper job and has access to all the equipment to do the job. The car handles fabulously and I think it looks fab - what do you lot think?
(I know I posted this on IB a while back but thought I'd see what the response is from THE club)

I am pretty sure that Rich is/was going to raise his as its too low, Thats if he still owns it

[Sean Smallman]

He's sold it and bought a targa, which is even lower.

SSE's are on the Turbo suspension and 16" wheels so they are a bit lower as standard.

Er...think I followed your inst. Have to have a chat at the NEC this weekend to find out what I'm doing wrong.

You have to click back on the Img tab if you are going to add more text after your put in the url.

Sorted.

Yes the Targa is really too low - but it was set up as a fast road / track car by Tuthills with Turbo track rods. Heights are 138mm front and 237mm rear. Height is definately going up soon before it hits a speed bump!

And yes I have successfully managed to post a pic at last
