It looks lower because it IS lower.

The main visual aspects are the new bumpers, or to say the bumpers now comes with skirtings. then the bigger rims. To lower a car, change the springs and shocks to aftermarkets designed for Perdana or Mitsu Galant/Eterna ..... or other compatible ones. :)

In short, bring your car to accessory shops, and yell :" I wanna lower my car." THATS IT. err... and pay la ofcoz. :)

must be the absorber that doing all the tricks
v6 have better absorber than the SEI i suppose

 

[ctquah]

ic.. means the springs and absorbers are different, rite?
means if i change the absorbers alone it will no difference loh..
coz my absorbers are spoilt and need to replace them..

 

[Battousai]

You need to change both the springs and absorbers.

 

[ctquah]

any idea how much will it cost for everything?

its because v6 engine is heavier than S4 engine. My S4 also lowered after convert to V6 engine. Heavier manifold and etc..

 

[Fluffy]

if that's the case.only ur front would be lower.not the back too.tilting.

 

[arih]

yep, u're right. Thats you'll only notice front lowered between S4 & V6 (provide both using same bodykit & rim+tyre profile) thats what I notice different between my S4 and other Alpha version of V6 in our club.

eh.. really? which is the lower one?

 

[Fluffy]

like the 2000 ones.(the one with the half grey bumpers and skirts.)

 

[arih]

forgot to mention, V6 still look lowered than S4 even using same bodykit,rim & tyre profile ,same spring/absorber. What I know, after convert to V6, my ride lowered to 2 fingers for front, no change on the back. (was 3 fingers when using S4) btw, thats on rim 17", monroe reflex + eibach pro kit.
