... Pretty close on the look, but still has a rake which I don't really dig on, and why I went with making my own.


Go easy, and I will catch ya later.

candy if you still got any of those drop kits of yours I'm pretty interested in one. please let me know. its the only kit besides air ride that will get as low as I wanna go for the style of mods I'm planning.

Hey their blackbosoPT,

Yep, sorry but the I am all out and don't have any plans on making any more for the time being. Reason being they are too expensive to produce in small quantity for like on or two people and make it worth while to do. I mean for the cost I could produce a set for you, you would only be a couple hundred dollars off of buying a set of coil overs.

Your best bet would be if you could maybe keep your eyes open for a set of Goldline Super Slammers which will give you a 2.75" x 3.25" Drop which before mine came along was the lowest Drop Spring Kit on the Market. The only downside is now that Goldline supposedly went under, any Super Slammer Kits are next to impossible to find, and those that got them either are keeping them, or selling for a ton of money as well since all that is currently available are just way mild 1" - 2" max drops, coil overs, or air ride which unfortunately are even more expensive, complicated, and hassle to put together over just a set of Springs.

Your other bet might be to see if you might be able to find a Custom Suspension Fab Shop or Manufacturer who might be able to hook you up with a custom one off set of drop springs in my 3" x 5" drop height if thats what you are looking for.

Other then that, I wish I could help you more, but till I get my shop put together hopefully and get some things rolling on my own so I can start banging out my own custom PT parts, then I am not able to do much.

Sorry I couldn't o more.

I was aware of the super slammers but had not come across a pair yet. I know this is gonna sound like a total noob question. what about neon coilovers for the front? (possibly a cheap set of ebay coilovers). the rear I think I can find a different coil spring that would work.
