    megan racing springs. NO DROP

    so i spend all day today just getting the front springs. i ordered some megan racing springs it says they are suppose to give u a 1.75 inch drop after the installation. lone and behold they are in my car and i got no drop at all if anything they sit a 8th inch higher doesnt make sense if u ask me?

    look i put in the same springs I measured from the ground to the bottom of the fender well and got 27 stock height 26 1/2 with springs in after moving the car even just a few feet the car dropped down to 25 the springs just need to settle and if you measure with dead shocks the the hieght will change anyhow

    The springs will settle but that doesn't explain why hes higher than stock height. Plus springs settled or not as soon as you put them on you should see the drop.

    Maybe they're V6 Springs?

    just my opinion, but I think if they were V6 springs, the weight difference wouldn't be enough to raise the car. Yes, they have a higher spring constant and thus exert more force, but keep in mind the springs are supposed to be a hell of a lot shorter than the stock springs. The only way for him to be higher after installer the Megans would be if the Megans had an extremely high spring constant, to the point where they hardly compress, and the old springs were sagging like hell

    Well this is in the 7g section so I doubt they are v6 springs

    well they are not v6 springs unless megan racing themselves messed up. on the box it says mistubishi galant 94-98 lowering springs. i will get pics up later tday... and for installing them upside down thats impossible. all i did was take the strut and spring assembly out and swap the new spring in place for the old. bumpstop??? didnt know this had to be modified.
