    loox lyk a hektik projekt man

    HEADS UP, any1 hav suggestions on sum CHEAP an LEGAL suspension options 4 my z10 let me no.
    Correction:

    Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to this forum.

    I have an MZ10 Soarer, that I would like to have lowered. I have found that a number of aftermarket suppliers are unable to assist due to the relative rarity of the model in the Australian market. If anyone has any recommendations, suggestions, or relevant parts for sale, please let me know.

    Thanks you for your help.

    ...............................................

    Most places will do drive-in, drive-out lowering for under $500 for prettymuch any vehicle. Otherwise, any half-decent suspension shop will be able to source springs for you to install yourself.

    MZ12 with MA61 Kings Lows and Tokico Shocks (Blues, can get them very affordably from ebay in the USA, or at least you used to be able to )

    Rear springs are custom winds at 6kg? if I recall...

    17's.

    It depends if you want practical/legal or uber low?

    I feel that my front could drop another 5-10mm, but the rear is perfect IMO.

    I can still go up driveways

    i personaly think that 17s are just a bit too big for that model. iv got 15inch ssr's on mine and im happy... except for the 20mm gap between the wheel an the arches >:/ how much did those springs drop the car by?

    Wheel size also depends on brakes, and I dislike 16" due to the average tyre choice (PS you might want to read my build thread which is linked in my signature? )

    The below photos should indicate the original 4wd ride height.

    Also anything lower in these things results in rediculous rear camber. You will end up having no grip and very average tyre wear.
    If in doubt power out
