    do racing beats lower this much?

    hey, i dont know who's car this is on car domain, but do racing beat springs lower your car this much.
    According to my Anger Management Counselor, after 26 weeks of anger management class, I should be an expert when it comes to Anger Management...tell that to the guy who threw a starburst at my car in rush hour traffic...haha

    In a word NO .racing beats only lower 3/4 of an inch ,I have them on my car . They do improve the handling of the car . From the pic I say you are looking at a 2 inch drop .

      then he's full of ****.. or you don't see the 2000lbs of bricks that he laid inside the car to get it that low.
      i thought Eibach gave the lowest low, and Negatize is an example of a 1.4/1.8 lowering.

        According to negatize, it sorta raised his car when he had RB springs on
        I have the Prokit springs and I think the drop is perfect! altho I do wonder what the sport line would look like
        but ya, that guy is full of **** or he did a ghetto cut

          That's P2K's car. He is on coilovers. He must have just been ****ing with you, that or it was listed and he was annoyed that you still asked. Either way, he has a very nice car. One of my favorites.

              Actually the Eibachs aren't the lowest drop. Sprint makes some 2" drop springs, the quality is questionable though. And I am not sure if the Spool springs fit, but I am pretty sure they do, and they have a very aggressive drop.

                  I might have stupidly assumed he has racing beats, because my dumbass just remembered they also make stabilizer bars, he has racing beat in his manufacturer list, and i just thought for some reason he meant springs. i would like to know however what springs he has.

                      What kind of struts do you have?

                        if you want the lowest drop get a set of coilovers (be it Slip over style or True coil-overs) that'll have the lowest drop. I got ground controls, not the best for autocrossing but they make the car sit nice and low with hardly if any wheel gap
