rear with 165/65 (outrageous and unnessesary stretch) [/quote]

Guna be a Boss looking Coupe , mite be different in person but those last two pics look cool with the stretch on

a know a guy on old school with a 36-1 laser cut trigger wheel and a sensor for $50 if he still has it.
Also setup weith a hall effect sensor instead of a vr sensor. hall effect is a more reliable signal

if anyone has bought a set id like to know what they are like?

i just have a few cert related questions for people with stupid low cars.(who actually have cert i hope?) or anyone in the know regardless.

1. what are the specifics of the 100mm to part of car rule?..... and is the 100mm BEFORE i need cert? which il be getting anyway. at this point only one point of the coupe is lower than this, the rear shock mount sits at 95mm from the ground.

2. to lower the front to the point where im happy it really needs another 30-40mm taken down, which i get is likely to be coilover teritory? hence the post above.

3. the rear ideally should match so the sills are level, at this point its about 130-135ish mm at both ends but the actual chassis rails are at about 105mm, can i go lower?

Don Hoff, who is the only game in town atm, wont cert anything under 100mm. Or so I'm told.

It used to be (and confident it has not changed) that the cert level is determined by the measurement between the two front wheels (and then done again between the two back wheels) at the bottom of the rim to the bottom of the rim, that no structural part of the car is under that line. That is so if you got two flat tyres your chassis does not hit the ground.

Pretty sure that is the rule. Can anybody confirm this has not changed?

so legally your car cant be below 100mm or it will require cert ? yet you wont get cert in chch with a car below this, so therefore you need to raise car back to 100mm or more to get cert whereby you will no longer need cert ???? Im confused , be strange if that was the case.

the 100mm Rule is in the WOF guidelines that no steering, suspension or structural part of your car is lower than 100mm. Ie a sump at 80mm is fine as long as the rest is at 105mm sort of thing.

I was of the impression that a lot of cars have been certed below 100mm at the steering,suspension & structure, But if Don Hoff says he isn't doing under 100mm then your stuck.
Speak to The Cert man. It might be frustrating, but you really need to hear it from the man doing the cert.

LVVTA Cert Plates do not actually list a height to the ground from the chassis, As Ging mentioned the CERT plate lists the measure from the middle of the wheel to the top of the wheel arch.

Does suspension include control arms, or just crossmembers?

Anything I think.
I was told second hand that Don wont roll under 100mm. Could be untrue.
Best way to roll is slam car, then cert with high profile tyres. Then switch to low pro as you can find, and you then have cert for a ground scraping piglet.
