Posed this question a few weeks ago, didn't get any good responses.

Basically I'm looking for timeslips before and after lower spring installation.. Importantly your 60 ft times.. I ran a 13.2 with my Mach, but it's sitting too high for me. I want to replace the springs and shocks with some Tokicos.. Trying to decide what springs to go with that won't cost me a lot of ET..

So if any of you have before and after results, post em! Doesn't have to be timeslip scans, just your own experience..

well my times stayed the same, including the 60's, after my install. i installed mac lowering springs about a 1 1/2in drop. i usually have a pretty consistant high 2.0 or low 2.1 on street tires, unless i'm really trying to get it down. my best ever 60 was after the springs, it was a 2.001. hope it helps :nice:

Thanks, never really considered the mac springs.. How are they? I assume you are on stock struts right?
 
i use fox springs and my car is slammed. 60' time in my sig, here's a couple pics of my ride:

i liked them really well, not too much of a drop: just right :nice: & i was on stock struts, but i had the strange adjustable shocks. it worked pretty well. although i could do the same times before that stuff, it made it much easier to pull those times, & i was much more consistant.

mike - did you get that 60 time on stock tires, cause if you did :worship:
