Assuming DIY coil over setup?
Is the perch wound down as far as possible?
Keeper springs no option ?
Why can you shorten your current struts?

Yeap DIY, can do keeper springs but i still dont think its going to go low enough and retain full suspension travel i found an american forum that had the part numbers for shorter ones so i've gone and ordered some

My old setup was r31 struts with the 1600 perch and an rx2/rx3 spring as there slighty harder.
Have gone to a platform adjustable coilover now welded into the stub housing.
