  1. Sportivo's sit higher than a norml corolla so 35mm drop is just nice. It's still relatively easy to get into driveways etc and I've been pulled up by the cops a few times and they've said nothing about the height. Check out the pics in the garage for heights etc.

    Ditto, as recently as this Tuesday (let off after being pulled over for estimated 70-80 km/h in a 60 zone).

    Anyway, my car dropped 40mm front and 45mm rear on Eibachs, and I've never been hassled. For that matter, driveways and speed humps are still no problem either.

    PS. I thought we had all acknowledged that the Sportivo was an inch lower than standard 'rollas?

  2. There's another point here that we've missed. Lotus has changed the cam shift point down to 4000rpm, obviously as the induction is forced more airflow is then desirable lower down.

    But clearly, it can be done. The question is whether this is just part of the ecu programming or whether the oil pressure valve also needs to be changed to allow shifting at lower rpm (and hence, lower oil pressure).

    Clearly, changing your shift point would be detrimental on a stock engine, but as soon as someone force feeds one of these puppies then this is one way to optimise the output.
