front of car raised too high

lucino · Jan 27th, 2004, 09:12 PM

I replaced my tranny with a gear box and installed a suspension tech sway bar , now the front of my car has raised and does not sit properly on the road (the front is higher than the back) I think its because of the lighter gearbox. Can anyone suggest any correction that i can make to my suspension( maybe a sway bar for the rear of my b14)

yeah...im abit lost on his terms too, what exactly is a gearbox? never heard that a sway bar has anything to do with the height.
the only thing i heard that makes it higher in the front is using eibach springs and not using b13 struts on a B14.

Did you notice this height difference right after lowered your car back to the ground? Normally it takes a short drive or rocking your car back and forth a few times to let the suspension fully settle.
