scrapping

[Quist]

I was wondering if any one had any tips about how to keep from scrapping so much. Around here where i live there are a bunch of drive ways that are really steep, and i want to get the si lip for my car but a i dont want to rip the damn thing off!!!

thanx crew

Umm... drive over steep things diagonally and very slowly. That's about it if you don't want to raise your car up.

How low did you drop it? I drive a '97 Civic, and it's dumped 2.5". I have no problems whatsoever.

Back at school we had some major speedbumps, there was this little civic hatchback that was slammed. He'd drive over them diagonally and all I'd hear is "scrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaattttttcccccccchhhhhhhhh" the whole way.

My brother had to remove his front end one time to get out of a parking lot....it was a real steep driveway, he got in but couldn't get back out without taking off the lip. Good thing he carries tools around in the car.

Here our speedbumps cave in on both ends so what I usually do (and I've seen cops fly over them like that too without slamming) is driver over the speed bump at a slight angle but at the very end of the bump where it caves it with my right side being at the cave in...works pretty well! :yes:

heh.. u guys think you have it bad? my downpipe is about 2 inches lower than the frame... basicaly go slow over anything you think you might scrape on, also do the diagonal thing... its really works.

Heh. Welcome to the world of lowered suspensions....

Diagonal. That's all I can tell ya. I live in Ohio which has some of the crappiest roads & weather. Good thing I only have mine dropped .75" .:yes:
