Just got a 'vert, ($200.00 with 140k and ONLY a blown ka) and i'm swapping everything from my sil80 over. Anyway I'm looking at the two cars and the 'vert is sitting almost as low and the sil80 stock.... the sil80 has agx's, tein stechs, and 18'' wheels with a 225/45 tire. Do the 'verts naturally sit lower or is that just due to an old suspension?

Thanks! the vert is ready for the sr now, shes all stripped out. I think i'll take some pics of the vert after the body gets swapped over in a week or two. I'm excited for my first slide with the top down!!

damn thats cheap I paid $600 for mine with blown KA and some light 1/4 panel damage.Should look good when you are finished.

My vert sat pretty friggin high, I believe they have stiffer suspension than stock because they weigh more. I know that when I put the convertible suspension on my coupe it looks pretty jacked up. I wish I had a spare motor I'd use the coupe for rally x.

Yeah the car is flawless, definitely a steal. So i guess the vert suspension is just old... for some reason I still think its gonna be lower than the sil80 when its all said and done...

well the vert weighs more so for any given drop on a coupe the same setup on a vert will be slightly lower because of the weight.
