If someone could really help me out with this i would appreciate it. I'm hopefully soon getting the ViS battle Z kit (that is if I have enough clearance) special ordered in carbon fiber. Before I go and order it though, I need a few measurements. Bumpers: how much lower do they hang down than stock?? Sideskirts: how much lower than stock?
Also, My car is lowered 2.5-2.75" Once this kit is on my car, any idea what my ground clearance is??? Right now my floor pan is my lowest point and it sits around 6" it's lower than anything else in my car, I know because I scrape it all the time... As long as I don't have any less than 5" clearance I'll be okay. Any help would be appreciated!! THANKS!!
Officer: Do you know how fast you were going??
Me: Fast enough to get you to put down the coffee and doughnut!

Me: great, now I'm REALLY gonna get a ticket huh?
depends. all kits sit differently. you have to have coils if your that low, so raise it up and youll be ok
Post pictures of the kit, I think it might be the drift kit. I dont know exactly what the battle z kit is. If its just a different name for the drift kit, with stock ride hieght it sits about 2.5" off the ground in the front and about the same on the sides. Its really low.

Oh, NM lol, the battle z kit is the one I have lol. I have only heard it called the combat kit. But anyways, with a 2.5" drop youll be about 3" off the ground maybe 4" the front bumper is about 2" lower than the stock one and the sides are about 2" lower in the front and 3" lower in the back. rear bumper is about 1.5" lower than stock. Hope this helps.
As for clearance, youll be fine on regular roads/curbs with a 2.5" drop.

I don't have coilovers, I have SpringTechs, how they dropped it that low I'm clueless?? but I was impressed!!! I live in PA, Elk County to be specific, that's the ONLY reason I'm worried about ground clearance. It's not my daily driver, I have my neon for that. And I did say that I was looking for measurments for the "ViS Battle Z" kit. I'll deide what's for me and whats not thank you.

ZeeTwankyFo thanks so much!! I really appreciated it!!! those measurments really helped!!!!!! Hopefully the sunfire/cavy front end doesn't make a difference.

Wow, thats amazing...You ask for people's oppinions, and then when the give them, you get defensive. You really need to look into that. I mean, the man was just giving his opinion, any you get p!ssy. That aint cool man. If you cant take the negative criticism w/ the positive, you really need to stop posting questions like that in forums, because the bad is just as quick to come as the good. Just a fact of life man.

hey Q_Bert your totally right except he didnt take the criticism as bad as you are making it out to be. "I'll deide what's for me and whats not thank you. " There is nothing wrong with that statement and in fact you made a bigger deal out of this whole thing than he did.
Q_Bert first off.. sorry to come off as a b!tch, I was trying to be nice about it. And just so you know, no I didn't ask for any opinions, I asked a specific question for a specific answer. I was very specific about what body kit I wanted measurements for and I stated that, brand and all, and I got replys to the question I posted, and I thank the guys that put time into answering it for me. I take constructive critisim well when I ask for it.
Oh and btw guys... this "he".. is really a she, I just thought I'd throw that one out there. lol

I, as well appologize...I wasnt trying to flame anyone. Hell, I dont have enough time on here to begin thinking of something like that (as some might say). All I was doing was point out that the way you worded your response, made is sound like a negative retort for a comment that was made. I am the last one to try to turn this into "Days of Our J's" or anything like that. I just misinterpreted your response.

Damn, I wanted to see how long before someone else picked up on the fact you are a female.
Wasnt trying to start anything btw, just thought the misconseption was kinda funny to me was all.
To add in the kit you are looking at with stock ride height will get your front lip around 2-3 inches off the ground. 17's with 215/45 tires will knock you up to around 3 1/2 inches or at least it did on my buddies car.
Even pure genius is born out of insanity.
Q_Bert, appology accepted, but really don't worry about it, it's nothign!!! I watch my dail dose of soaps, I don't need them on here too.. lol
PsychoJJ I was wondering that too. Really it's a daily thing, but oh well..... it was fun while it lasted
Thank for those measurements btw, they helped a lot!!!!!!
