OK,ive searched all over the forum before posting,ive also searched all over the internet (to the best of my ability) to answer these few questions about lowering a k11
For me personally i think im going to use suzuki alto/wagon rear springs on my standard front shocks and i think im going to use corsa b rear shocks with my standard rear springs and cut a couple of coils of them.
Ok thats great,but:
I know the rear shocks of a corsa b will fit with slight filing of the bushs on the corsa b shock but what about the bolts that are used to actually hold the corsa b shocks to the rear of my micra? do i need to use the standard bolts of a corsa or standard bolts of the micra?
if i use the rear springs i mentioned above with my standard front shocks how much of a drop am i looking at? and same for rears using corsa b shocks with standard rear coils off the micra with a couple of coils cut?
and does anyone have any pics of there car using the above setup and advise on any other bits/parts i may need to actually make this setup fit and work on my micra?
I have all the tools and spring compressors and everything else to actually do the job of lowering my car and have lowered a lot of cars in the past at home without problems.
i know i will also need to get a adjustable panhard rod too and finally im not really looking for answers that say ''just chop your springs and keep all your stand shocks'' type of answer although having read alot on here do it this way without problems.
sorry for rambling on lol but need to know ive got all the right parts/nuts/bolts and anything else i may need before starting the job in hand.
thankyou
