Thats why ive getting some custom GAZ Gold coilovers made up for me. Coilover units front and rear. Adjustable stiffness front and rear. 100mm lowering potential. :D :wink:
I think if people want something ridiciously low then they should go with the air ride type.
air ride is for gays though :P. Im not saying that im gunna be going -100mm but the 60/65mm on all the coilover kits just doesnt seems to be enough to get the perfect stance IMO

Yeh they'd be sick! You could get adapters for them, or get them re-drilled, I noticed this guy has just done that but the other way around!!
