ms123crownpimpmobile

got the tints done at xpert tints in takanini they done a great job $260 35% all round

Ok well I have never had nolathane in any of my cars so I don't actually know Just heard they are good from a few people so I thought I would give them a try because all the bushes are perished and shit Japawagons what are the downsides you reckon?

Hey guys it must be my stunt double! I live in Papakura south auckland so generally cruising around south Have only seen one other ms123 and it was a lighter blue on trademe about a 2 year ago

Ok so only just realised you ment no ones in nz seems to carry anything I thought for a minute there was a shop called noons lol

Also ypwzer will hit up noons thanks for heads up Crown LyF

Yo car will remain at this height cheers for the feedback Gets heaps of looks at pakn save (maternity parking lol)

Sweet yeah I'll keep that in mind aye Replacing rear shocks this weekend Also want to nolathane up front before wheel alignment where's the cheapest place???

Yeh just took out a pair of 14mm bolts out of the wheel arch that kept rubbing on the tyres Has reduced heaps of guard rub so yeah happy now won't change a thing maybe bit lower in the rear

fronts are falcons cut to 325mm but I would cut at 350 and let them settle down rears are 99 mazda 626 springs

so I thought I had cut the springs just right but then they settled about 25 mm lower than I wanted nevertheless, I went ahead with the planned road trip and it was mint on the open road.bit of guard rub entering driveways and speed bumps are a mish but handles way better than standard next plan is to get some more falcon springs from pickapart and lift it up 25mm at the front tinted windows to keep inside cool put the new rear shocks in fix shudder from take off probably service gearbox find the rattle in the exhaust/all out new shit from extractors back!NZs quickest 5m crown?????

lowered road tripping

slam drove it down state highway27 to vegas was pretty good had to adjust around town driveways are a mish but yeh im going to get sum more falcon springs from pick apart to redo the front I want it 25mm higher so it will sit level.but yeah stoked

Yeh It was awesome! till I realised how bad guard rub on slight corners would be I intend on driving this thru twisty bits without issues so I didn't want it that low Will put up pics when I get to laptop

That feeling when you cut to much off

Ok yeh third time lucky I hope Gonna get into it now got rained off

how it sits with uncut falcon front springs

hey guys so bit of progress recently have a few questions for you crown gurus Q1 .have lowered the rear on 99 mazda 626 rear spings and its the hight I want except on one side its 15mm higher than the other how can I fix this and why is it like that? Q2.I want to use falcon springs up front they are much stiffer and would like to keep my originals as back up .the standard crown front spring is 440mm standard falcon spring is about 390.i fitted the falcon spring and dropped the jack was surprised to see it was at the exact same height lol so few DAYS LATER I pulled it out cut off 45mm .now its 345 mm high spring almost 100mm less than standard crown spring,put it all back in drop the jack and its barely lower. soim thinking im gonna have to cut like another 100mm of these falcon springs to get them to work but will I then have to shorten the shocks or will the standard hight shocks still be sweet? Q3how much did you guys cut out of your factory springs to achieve low up front? Q4 also the thing that joins to the lower arm with the bumpstop attached is max tightened right now if I go lower how will this work?do I trim the rubber bushes on there so I can shorten the length and tighten it up? all info is max helpful and appreciated cheers

new shocks all round kyb

Na wasn't me bro

ok so I am an exterior plasterer by trade but just keen diy type guy so apoligies if I ask noob questions in advance so once I drop front down on the trimmed coon springs I want to replace the shocks all around where do you guys recommend for cheapness and what brand is good? also cheap good tint places I live in papakura south Auckland btw so around these ways would be choice
