Does anyone know how to lower your car with three Megan setup. I got them installed and wasn't around and would like them a little bit lower.

Thanks

fronts are easy to adjust but the rear needs 2 adjustments as they are not true coilovers. The rear strut is not together with the spring like the front are.

rear spring should be adjusted before adjusting the rear strut.

In most cars this type of suspension is not adjusted correctly and owners really don't get to enjoy how they should really work.

This is the reason most M owner buy D2 Racing coilovers as they are true coilovers (front & rear). and yes they cost more but easy to install and easier to adjust.

Just got the car back....overall pretty happy. I see what you mean by the rear aren't true coilovers. Also have the g37 brOke swap done. Didn't get to really drive I t like I would cause its pouring outside. Hopefully I get pics up loaded soon.

I have the full meeting exhaust and intake System of this form RC 2...... Is the tune really worth it or should I get the oem kit.? I'm leaning more for the tune.

It almost looks like oem height which is why I asked. Maybe match the front to the rear? What is the height set to now on your car.

I agree with Mex, it doesn't look like the car has been lowered at all...

I like the brake upgrade, what size spacers are you using?
