Tuesday, March 01, 2005 7:17 PM

I have the blitz front with 18's and Intrax 1.75" - 2.00" drop. The bottom of my bumper set right at 3" from the ground. I've got hpracing coilovers now but it's raised up right now cause of all this darn snow.

I just got the 00+ Urethane Drift front for my cavalier, and on 19's I'm sitting at 3 1/2" off the ground... I'm going with a mild 1.5" drop... that should bring me to 2"-2 1/4" off the ground.

The drift bumper is LOW! I'm sitting on stock springs and am very hesitant about lowering it cuz it's my daily driver and i don't want it to crack. the blitz kit is nice but i always felt it was too aggressive

i had the drift front and it does sit very low on stock springs.
if u want a good pic go to cardomain.com and look at "Project Z Queen"

there ya go-



lowered on GroundControl coilovers on KYB GR2s (BAD IDEA)

the front coils are about an inch down, the rears are all the way up. I can't get my shoe under the front lip

IMO the drift looks better, that's what i have(had) until i went into a field off a slick road. I also live on a really bumpy gravel road, but rarely did I scrape on it, as long as you keep it under 55 on the backroads, you'll be fine, except steep inclines, but that's another story.

I personally think the drift looks better, but it is low. Mine looks pretty much like opeth's.

Go with the drift kit It looks alot better. I have the drift kit with a 2" drop and 18" wheels. I hardly ever hit anything, but when I had 17's I hit alot more. BUt all in all I think the drift is by far the more aggressive looking one. Just my 2 cents

actually, the GroundControl coilovers are a 1.5" drop, even when they're all the way up. (i can still lower the car like 3.5 more inches)...i'm just lowered an additional inch in the front.

as far as rubbing, i don't have any problems at all.

hey please dont get mad at me cause i know this is off the subject but curiosity got the best of me...
what kind of engine do you have in that primered cav, cavgirl? cause that is a huge hood and i am dyin to know. sorry. lol. If it helps, i think that drift looks way better. i used to have a blitz but they are just way too aggressive and don't go withthe lines that well.

matrixlifedemon lala, I have a 2.4L engine....the hood isn't really that huge, just like a cowl induction hood.
