Hey guys as some of you may know i got a nice defect notice the other week haven't really had time to get it cleared with working everyday of the week until today. Basically its currently sitting at about 90mm of the ground with the coilovers adjusted to maximum height. Without taking of the exhaust and putting the stock one back on what would be the best way to get it up at least another 10mm?

bigger rims, especially with a bigger rolling diameter will only hurt your cause. your better off getting some stock suspension or changing the exhaust.
good luck
if you got done for too low, there going to be checking the rims size/profile...so gettin F6 20s aint gona help ya... as Nick said, stock suspension! _________________

i think my front right spring is really badly compressed i took the front wheel off because the front of the car wont pass now and it was on about 3/4 height adjustment with and had the spring wound almost to the top so i backed the spring now and lifted it up with the height adjustment but it pretty much made it lower. only got a week to get this done now its really starting to stress me out

Old coilies the aimgains and ultra rare in japan. Time for some alternate suspension / coilies. _________________
