I seem to remember a 38mm drop front and 39mm drop rear... So yes, it'll be lower than standard.

I'll hunt for the source of the info..

I think the answer is yes. The car will sit the same height with the springs and any damper combo. Whether the existing dampers will have enough damping force is another thing.

Hi,Lol what i meant is that although they say a drop of 37-38mm will i need other mods suspension wise to drop the car or will the springs be enough?.
