Proper coilover spring lengths?
Revising the suspension on my car.
Got a great deal on some ever-so-slightly used JRZ RS dampers and will be going with Swift Springs (392#/672#) and Vorshlag camber plates. Will likely also add some adjustable sway bar links. Does anyone know appropriate length for the springs? FWIW, I may drop my ride height approx. 3/4". Thanks. Neil |

I put on KW-V3's and dropped 3/4" for ideal performance.
It's amazing how lowering the car actually made the ride more comfortable.

I know. I know. I just got them done last week. I'll put up a post later with some pics. I had a few more fun things installed.
