Here's my lowered XT, I'm actually selling but it's been a real delight. I never got into the weeds on mods. Just some BC coils and toe arms.

I never did get wheels for the car, but if something happens and I end up keeping the car you can best believe it's getting some retro JDM 3 piece wheels to match my s14.

I really hope I'm not posting in the totally wrong place here. I'm not sure why I don't have permission to post in the for-sale section just yet. I'm looking to list my car.

Anyway, I was expecting to send a ticket request or similar in but this appears to be the support structure.

Let me know what I'm missing in order to use the for-sale section! Thanks

Yup, the lgt shocks are up front and obxt are still in the rear. It's very noticeable in the front with the reduced shock travel and the car feels more stable for sure with enough roll in the rear that it actually makes it a bit easier to break lose if needed.

 

I have yet to bottom out (knock on wood) and I've hit some very hard bumps with a full load of passengers and gear during multiple road trips. I removed the rear bump stops. I did not remove the subframe spacers. I see no need to for my application and she's been doing perfectly fine for well over 80k on this setup.

Thank you very much for this info. I think I'll copy your setup in that case. Time to email BC and ask them nicely if I can mix-match the setup like you have it. I wanted to go lower than your car at first, but after thinking about owning two cars that are unreasonably low, I am reconsidering. It would be nice not to have issues with the potholes/ally-ways in my downtown area.

To clarify, you're running Oubtack-spec BC's in the rear, and Legacy ones in the front? Have you removed any of the subframe spacers? I've been convinced so far that my best move is to go full legacy setup and true legacy coils for the ride I want, but looking at your car, I'm not sure how much lower than that I REALLY want to go.

Probably about the same ride height... I'd imagine you almost never bottom out.

18x8.75 +35? It's about exactly the fitment I'm shooting for.
