Hey guys, got some new coilovers for the CL9 and they're able to get to the "PERFECT" height that I want looks-wise... I just have a driveway that's terrible for my car.
Here's an idea of what I'd suffer with the old height
it's about an inch lower on the rear and a tad lower on the front now, so yeah. the chassis of the car hits the pavement quite hard, and it gets stuck without planks.
I had to get some planks and somehow managed to get the car out without getting stuck. Tried reversing it up but no dice - stock exhaust hits the pavement hard at some point.
Now since quite a few of you guys probably suffer the same fate, I'm hoping some of you could chime in on what you did to make your cars get out of your crap driveways. I was just looking for some pointers when making a ramp, what sort of lengths you were measuring, and so on.
I'm gonna hit up an exhaust shop tomorrow and have them raise the factory exhaust as high as it can possibly go, but I'm worried that I still may not be able to make it in the garage even with that. Pointers would be appreciated loads!
Raising the car, buying aircups and keeping the car permanently outside are last resort options!
Cheers
