Phillis, what shocks do you have up front? I noticed that yours was at a nice height in Phillip Island and it looked pretty good.

by **Phillis** » October 26th, 2009, 8:29 pm

cheers man!

shocks or springs? all 4 shocks are shagged. the front sits an inch lower than xr spec, so 2 inches lower than GLi spec. the back sits 1.5 inches lower than xr spec, 2.5 inches lower than GLi spec. the shocks are all factory and they are shagged, as they arent specifically designed for lowered cars, so they are bottoming out on everything. new ones are going in this week.

i was a fan of your wagon too man. ill admit there was a point where i walked toward your car thinking it was mine, then realised there was no red stripe and walked away hoping no one saw me make a fool of myself :mrgreen:

Thanks for the info man and the kudos towards my wagon. i'd like to get mine a bit lower but the back end is constantly scraping and bottoming out, but then i dont really wanna lower the front cos then the roof will have a slant towrds the front whereas now its nice and level. so not sure what to do. I'm pretty sure there are 2 inch blocks in the back.

Wagon cruise would be totally awesome.

by **EFFalcon** » February 22nd, 2010, 7:09 am

regardless of all the crap, it is still a nice wagon.

i reckon it'd look better with colour coded moulds though.

interior was nice.
