Ok guys i lowered my car on arospeed springs its a 2 inch drop all the way around now the front of my car look alot higher and has alot more fender space then the rear but i can still bottom out....is all the gen3 camrys like this if there lowered
yes, search... most cars do this.... just look around at any car... especially, the safer, family oriented cars. thats why the chassis is soooo low too. cause the fenders are made to sit high. when you lower the car, the chassis is actually really close to the ground. and when you get extremely low, by using coilovers,bags,airride or cut springs, the chassis actually only sits a couple inches from the ground. dangerous for our exhaust... i worry about mine every time i go to NYC.
my H&R springs on my gen 3 are close, but I believe the front has a bit more gap. The chassis sits level though, I bleieve I read that the gen 3 just has more front fender gap than rear. Watch your exhaust, mine is about 4 inches off the ground, havent scraped yet but youve really gotta be careful.
My car with Sprints... I have a good finger and half gap and the rear, I'm tucking.
That should be gone because I should be recieving my D2 coilovers any day now.

"the gen 3 just has more front fender gap than rear..."- as seen in my previous post. but yes, I learned that from the man himself Ufoz a few months back.
didnt Jon run two different springs front and rear on his green gen 3 v6 back when he had it to lower the front more than the rear?
i have sprint all around with the fron cut 1.5 coils... its really really low. its actually just like yukios gaps but my front might be a little bit lower...
Or you can do like me..the GHETTO Style..Cut the springs..makes it even out perfectly..the ride is jux a little BUMPY but not ruff..Loving it though..But have a lot of scratch on the the part where the engine sits..
