just wonderin if anybody has put ultra's in the front of their vl. i currently have supers in the front but want it lower, have heard that ultra's in the front mean lots of trouble wit scrubage and damaged wheel arches.
can anyone tell me if this is true or it is sweeet to do
cheers vlw4nk3r
hahaha daggy, i've seen your car around, im really surprised that you haven't got a defect yet! chopped springs yeah?
Off the top of my head, the lowest it can be legally is 100mm off the ground or something like that. Try a set of King Springs Superlows on it? I've got a set on my VN, and its enough to make it scrape on some speedhumps.
yeah nah ive beeen close to a few well 4 including saturday night.. he was a good copp but he let meoff as it wasnt raining < and yeah, ill probly find otu about the ozmoses someone mentioned in a thread a while ago,and get a new exhaust a tad higher as its like 6cm of the ground, still wont scrape down rowers and barly scrapes in maccas gateways a a killer tho ;/
how low from the standard hight is ultras? anyone got any pics of ultra(front n back) and super(front n back)?? or know anything about ozmoses springs ?

for SA mine is pretty much as low as it can go at the front legally, and depending on shock absorber travel i can possibly go a little bit lower at the back.

hehe - it's currently got monroe gas GT struts at the front with lovell standard springs and sports ryder shortened shocks in the front and back, the rear has kings superlows in it currently, but I can probably legally go to ultra (or super-super low depending on who you buy them from ) without any hassle.
We just have crappy eyebrow height laws over here, measures the distance from the center of the wheel to the wheel arch so the front is sitting pretty much exactly on the lowest height you can go!
edit, btw i've been to mildura a fair bit, used to live only about 1.5 hours away!

anyone know a rough price on some lowered shocks ?
hahaha mildura isn't *too* bad.. but stuff drifting 15th st roundabout for a joke - i hit a gutter n blew a tyre there the other nite ;/ oh well, that'll teach me for being a hero in the wet!
Have you checked out any of the local auto parts places for shocks? I think that Super Cheap might sell them.

hrmm so many different springs that ive never heard of.. autobarn should know about all these springs shouldnt they .. ?
whats the differnce between ultra and super lows? your car lookds pretty even.. id never think you would have 2 didffernet types of springs...
VLW4NK3R, what shocks you got .. ? standard ? ncie car btw what size are your rims ?
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
well vls sit higher at the back thats why i did the 2 different spring size to get it even, but i want lower umm i just chucked some sh|tters in manero gas reflex i think, and no i dont think auto barn knows cause i have asked my local store and they didnt kno ****. ultra are the lowest king spring. ohh yer and there 18's but they look like 17's cause they have a some stud patteren round the inside of the rim
