Lowering SVX?
Just wondering...
How many of you have your SVX lowered? I just saw this pic, and got shocked..how cool the SVX is! Does this car belong to any of you here? Here's the photo. LoweredSVX I'm not sure if it is functional but looks amazing to me.

Not sure who's that is but I know Dayle sells 2 types of springs and mbtoloczko makes custom sets. The only thing with the latter is it takes up to 8 weeks to get the springs but the price and quality is worth the wait. I ordered a set from him 1" in the front and .5" in the rear. Which will give it a nice lower stance and stiffened handling. Here's a link to mbtoloczko's site Here...

I need to drop my svx. Every thing I do makes it higher
 CF hood more wheel gap. 5 speed swap when done I'll have even more gap.

Here's one of mine. This is with the Konis and Ground Control springs. I attempted to set the spring height to give the appearance of the same fender clearance front and back.

I thought you already had 5 mt? Guess I mixed that up. I REALLY should do the suspension soon too! I'm also in need more "low". Of course I also have a bunch of exhaust components in the corner begging me to put them them somewhere...
