test post... lowered Honda?

(well, it's really just for photo, it's actually sitting on top of a hotwheels chassis - just wanted to see the effect of being lowered).

It's definitely a good way to display your ZZ bodies if you have a few and want to show it off.

here's a non-lowered honda.

looks good does it sit the same on a zip it looks good

tuner00 10-07-2002 11:16 AM

actually
 
second photo is on a ZIP chassis. (only the first one is on a hotwheels chassis)

I don't see a good way of lowering the Civic down yet. Maybe if I use some playdo to see how much space there really is in between.

Dude that is da bomb! it looks sweet on the hot wheels frame!

my civic actually sits that low on my zz chassis. I'll post pics when I get around to borrowing a digital camera.

HOW???
 
Until you can post your pics, can you tell us how you got it lowered??

I have been trying to find out from someone that has been through this route to lower it, and want to know the best way to do it!

Thanks! :)

use a dremel tool with a cut off wheel attachment. then from the inside of the body cut a groove about3 mm above the original. make sure there is a peice of plastic between the original slot and the new one. the amount between the two slots on my car is about 2 mms or about the same as the original slot height.

neat..
 
now i need to find my cutter attachment for my dremel.

Thanks.
