V12V Lowering

[GT Two]

I want to lower the car slightly and have a more aggressive geo setup.

Not keen on lowering springs so would firstly rather lower the car on existing setup if it has adjustable spring platforms and if not possible then it would be new coilovers, which would be a shame because the OEM setup seems very good.

I found this pic online of a front shock for a V12V, if you look closely there seems to be lower grooves for the spring perch.

Can anyone confirm if this is true and if you can lower on existing setup?

I thought BR had told you it was possible to lower car?

Yes but others have said not and I'm now confused.

But BR are engineers, not salesmen and therefore I would explore that avenue before ripping & replacing perfectly good suspension.

Mike has been very helpful but its a long way for me to go with my car.

Completely impossible and you need expensive new parts (maybe even the wrong ones). Oh, and I have a bridge here if you are interested...

I have absolutely no engineering knowledge about this subject, but seem to recall a contributor some while ago, describing extensive suspension changes to I think, a Vantage.

I remember admiring the skill, but did not study in detail, because it is not something that I would do.

Can anyone produce a link to that topic?

Too cryptic for me John - a bridge?

Never really understood this, not the speed bump issue bit, the driving to the local boozer bit.
