Scottybue Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 What about Tanabe, do you know the drop with them, unclemat? I seem to remember you selling some struts with them in front and Pinks in back for a very even wagon drop... now rocking the 2007 Mini Cooper S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottybue Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Would Cobb work at all with JDM since they offer a 1.75" drop front and 1" drop in back? now rocking the 2007 Mini Cooper S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Obviously JDM. It's just front Tanabes drop more then Pinks. Mix'n'match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrisok Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I have just heard too many people who did not like the way the pinks rode, also I have seen that the pinks barely drop the car, I want something that has a reasonably low drop for that 'just right' look but where the @ss does not drag. The H-Techs were cheap, and I have considered cutting a 1/4 coil from the fronts so that it sits right, I just don't know what that might do to ride quality. I have JDM GT Rev C Bilsteins and cut a half coil from the fronts make the drop more even with the rear. Previoulsy I was running the H-Tecs on stock struts so the Bilsteins and cut H-Techs are WAY better regarding ride and performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice, thanks for the information, so half a coil was the right drop? Sounds like I need to run to Autozone to pick up the spring compressors.

Yebbey Posted January 10, 2007 Author Share Posted January 10, 2007 Morrisok...any pics of that set up? I'm just a little leary of cutting the springs. I've got to decide on what to do with the springs before I get these struts put on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got to decide on what to do with the springs before I get these struts put on. I would really like to see some side pics of the car. I am probably going to do this anyway, but it would be good to see beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
