Lowered RX-7 Pictures
I started this thread to get some pictures of our members rides that have been lowered 1" etc. Can everyone please post a picture of their RX-7 and the amount it has been lowered front and rear? I recently just did my own and it turned out a LOT lower than I expected and want to get an idea on how low mine is in comparison to others so I can find my own personal medium when I buy new rear springs (running coilovers already up front). I think my original springs really sagged and now I'm not sure what normal is.

Thanks for the replies, I took some pictures. After seeing FIBERMAZ's car, I am beginning to think my rear springs are actually 3" drop... oh boy.
Here are some pictures... what do you all think:

This is when it was on its stock springs:

I was thinking of getting some RB 1" drop rear springs and raising the GC setup to match... I think what I have now is too low? The ride is pretty harsh because it has full poly and tokiko illumina's.
