Hey Guys & Gals,
Just drove my wifes new 05 NC from Syd back home and want to lower it...
Has anyone used STECH or HTECH springs??
I would like to see how the cars sit with each of them, if someone could post pics (that you know are those springs 100%) that would be much appreciated.
Cheers

If no one can provide pics, then have a look for anyone that has king springs also, as the drop the same 30-40mm like both the S and H-Techs do.

The brand and type of spring doesn't matter, you can view any spring provided that the height is the same as the one you're interested in.
Here's my NC when it was on King Springs.
Photos show a 40mm drop front and 35mm rear drop. Ground clearance approx. 80mm.
Centre of wheel vertically to guard lip is 343mm front and rear.
PS these photos are over 6 years old and the car now sits a lot differently.
If you are just wanting to get rid of the 4 x 4 look don't go too low. I'd suggest you try and not exceed a 35mm drop otherwise speed humps become a problem.

Thanks Charlie Brown!
I've seen that pic all over google images and despite the massive King Spring banner (lol) I wasn't 100% sure it had King Springs in it or if it was just chance!
Some pics suggested it was Eibachs from memory so I ignored it!
King Springs it is, looks alot nicer than standard height + its only my wifes auto!
It looks like it say quite even front to rear, no nose diving or taking off at the front?
Thanks again
