before you invest in all that why not try removing your isos for a lil more drop, sportlines without isos is pretty damn slammed.

Any lower and you will probably be scrapping and bottoming out
but,it's your mustang though.
Ride quality will only get worse with a stiff and harsh ride depending
on what shocks and struts you have.
I say sell your Eibach Sportlines and give the H&R Supersports a try
with no inso's in front or back.
I just can't see going any lower though.

You dont want to go any lower than sportlines no isos, I have Sportlines no isos and ive rip chunks off my tires on hard corners.
the ride? is alright, i have bilstein struts and koni shocks and check sig to see how low the car is. :angel4:

Heres mine on MM coilovers before I took them off to sell the car. It looked good but rode stiff mostly due to the rear coilovers being at the end of travel. Im sure if you droped the mount points on the rear it wouldn't be bad. It didn't scrape everywhere but I drove differently because I knew it was low. Everyone is soooo scared of scraping but in all reality is not a huge deal. Why are people scared to drag the x-pipe a little? bagged trucks and cars drag stuff all the time.

Wow! that has to be the lowest SN95 I've seen to date. I like the looks but you'd even scrape a pebble. Like I said, looks nice!

Yea, it only went that low when the car was stopped/parked/shows. I dont think he ever drove it like that on the street.

In that state, the car was powered by a Heads/Cam/Intake 5.0L with a Procharger D1SC stuffing its throat, that layed down a hair over 500 RWHP.

It handled quite well. But the airbags were swapped out for coil-overs cuz he didnt want to deal with leaking air lines and the extra weight from the compressor and tank in the trunk.

Those coil-overs are now on my car, as the white GT shown was sold as a roller to another buddy, who has since put in a 10 point jungle gym inside along with a single turbo 408/C4 setup = strictly drag car now.

Hey magic, got a couple questions on your coil overs, first what set up are you using now? How does it handle and how comfortable is it? If you could change something in your set up what would it be and why? I'm looking into coil-overs myself and are pretty much going into it blind.

PM me if you really want to know the specifics on what Im using for my suspension setup. But it handles great (love taking those on-off ramps and more than 2-3 times the posted limit) and is quite comfortable for a lowered car even on bumpy roads (lotsa bumpy roads in my city).

I would not change anything to whats there now, I only want to add a few more things.

Some reading on a great info packed website:
