Hey guys, Im Looking at lowering my car but not sure how much. I can get a deal on some 2.5 inch lowering springs and want so see how that would look on an mx3 with a stock body
Would be helpful if someone could post a picture of a 2.5inch drop or any other lowering hights with something saying exactly how much of a drop it is
Could even be helpful in the future for other people looking to lower their mx. Sort of a lowering hight index?
Any help is appreciated of course

2.5" is pretty low. most kits are 1.25" or 1.5" i believe. if there 2.5" there either cut or coil overs...look threw the worklogs most people are dropped around 1.5" including myself. this is my car when i had coil sleeves and was probably close to a 2.5" drop

most lowering springs are 2" settled. That GC drop is closer to 3"

SAM, I just love your car more and more every time i see it
This is Eibach 1.3" drop on 17's
V6 to 4 banger is going to differ in the front about 1/2" depending on the springs
Megan racing makes a 2" drop for the escort, but thats the lowest I know of.
