stock height
i bought the car used with neuspeed springs on them... and so i have never known stock ride height... it seems to me that the springs are lower than what they advertise... (i have the bend my finger slightly to get it between the fender and the tire)
could someone who has stock suspension measure for me the height from the ground to the bottom of the car? not where its reinforced for the jack... but right infront of it at the bottom of the car... could you measure behind the front tire and infront of the rear tire... thanks!

Sorry, to bring this back up, but is the 5" rear side strake and 3.5" front side strake reasonably accurate, or just a ballpark? I'm trying to be accurate with comparison to stock.
The reason is I'm trying to drop 20mm equally on my buddy clubs, but I don't believe my stock measurement was settled enough when I took the original measurement... So I'm just trying to get a stock height on a level surface from an additional source. What I'm noticing is the suspension characteristics change drastically with differences in the front/rear height, and I'm trying to get it to a stock height distribution (just 20 mm lower).

dont go to stock height! it will look very funny for you to see you car sitting so high
if u r not comfy with your current high, get a set of KG/MM SS springs, they drop , but not much , at 0,6"

I'm not going stock height... I'm trying to find an accurate stock height, so I have a measurement for an even drop and keep the same height distribution.
Can anyone confirm the stock height measurement by Emil?
