Hi guys i like the ride/handling of my r33 gtr but it sits way too high.

I want to keep the similiar ride but compress the springs. Is it good to do this?, how much lower can you go than standard and does it affect anything on the car by doing this?

Mind you this is my first gtr


thanks

I never heard of compressing standard springs...

I suggest you just buy a set of aftermarket Coilovers (springs) to replace the standard ones you got on atm.

It will lower your ride hight, give you better handling and at the same time, cause you got the standard GTR shocks, you will still have a smooth ride.

Me and a friend did this to his R32 GTR and he used Tein Coilovers.

Don't compress/reset them anth.
Better off getting coilovers for the height you want to go but if ya on a budget just some lowered springs
