Thanks for the welcome! I'll be doing a lot of reading here to learn all the little tricks - this side of modification is pretty new to me.
Ah, yes, getting creative will be the name of the game. A few of the challenges, for starters:Originally posted by Jedidiah View PostSeems like you are gonna have to get creative on getting it low, comfortably. I'm having to do the same with my new project... makes it all the more fun. Start a build thread once you got a plan of attack for getting it low.
-Off the shelf parts are pretty much non-existent. No airbag kits, coilover suspensions, nope. I've got lowering springs and Koni adjustable shocks, that's as good as it gets.
-The 900 has TONS of front overhang, very long nose past the front wheels. That means a higher chance of scraping on everything, and the body kit is very rare and unavailable in the US. So running fixed height might not be an option.
-Wheels are hard to choose. The 4x114.3 bolt pattern is common FWD, but the car requires more of a RWD offset
My best option looks like imported JDM wheels which typically have lower offsets, but come with combo 4 and 5 by 114.3 patterns.

Don't know how I overlooked this... love that you took a platform few are willing to even attempt to modify. Seems like you are gonna have to get creative on getting it low, comfortably.
