#1: What your car would look like lowered... Author: ma.langan, Location: Leyland, LancashirePosted: Sat Mar 05, 2011 5:16 pm ---- Today I was messing with my car and worked out a way of finding out what your car would look like lowered...
do this at your own risk, i take no responsibility for buggered clutches, handbreak or shocks...
this is just an idea that wont do the car anygood if done on a regular basis, ie, several times a day
what ya need:
a good working handbreak
a good clutch
fast feet
Start the car on level ground and apply the handbreak as hard as ya can without snapping the cable
put the car into first gear, and whilst applying a little revs, release the clutch so the car starts moving.
the rear of the car will now drop if the handbreak is on properly.
now quickly stomp on the break and get ya mate to take a pic of the car lowered, alternatively with a diesel stall the engine with your foot on the break and then gently realease the brake. the car will rest on the engine and stay put, but i wouldent recoment leaving it like this too long. a petrol cars engine will just turn over but backwards and re-level itself - i think.
again I did this at my own risk and just thought I would share the idea, saves people wondering what their car would look like lowered on the rear.
another alternative would be to find a really steep tarmac or concrete hill, park facing down, apply the handbreak and then realease the break, put the car into reverese, then have a look, the car lowers itself this way too.
hope the idea is usefull

Orrrrrrr just lower it anyway because it always looks better when it's lower down.

yeah ps would be easier, i just though of it today and temp lowered it and it looked smart.
safest option is the hill one, no clutch burning that way

#21: Re: What your car would look like lowered... Author: ma.langan, Location: Leyland, LancashirePosted: Sun Mar 06, 2011 5:57 am ---- it may sound odd but I dont have any bricks, or heavy things to put in the car! and our tv is probably heavy enough but its bout a third bigger than the car. Helps out people who dont have heavy things and with pictures on here you cant walk around the car. I dident like the look of lowered cars on here, until last night when I saw mine last night, looked smart so will be investing in new springs...
or you could raise your car, jus parked on hill!
