the infamous "fork trick" that can be used; a picture says a thousand words:



in essence, you are pushing the damper further down into the fork, you want to be careful when doing this as to not place it too FAR down as it may come into contact with your axle - no bueno.

*Trick #2
EF front forks (and dampers) on a 92-95 civic - they're shorter... by about an inch - and will bolt right up. This will decrease the overall length of your LCA - Strut Tower length and will instantly lower your car about 1".

*Trick #3
skinny tires, smaller rims - get the 40 size sidewall instead of the 45 or 50, get the 15" wheel instead of the 16" if it's that important to you.

*Trick #4
trim a hole in the strut tower - I'm not recommending doing this, as it can definitely take away from the structural integrity of the car. But at least your A-arm wouldn't smash anymore.... right?

*Trick #5
get some stiff springs... and I mean stiff. What? Your Omnis have 10k front and 8k rear? try again - those rates come out to 560lb front and 448lb rear, which means that your suspension will move too much for typical daily stuff if you're wanting to ride low. My current setup uses 18k front and 12k rear - 1012lb front 674lb rear... yes, the car rides somewhat stiff, but to those who have ridden in it since i installed the new stuff, all sing the rides praise. I never bottom out, and the car handles well. And dang there were a lot of commas in that last run-on sentence.

*Trick #6
negative camber can be your friend - to those of you who want to ride slammed and be able to turn... prepare your wallet for lots of new tires.

a couple of pictures for my "resume of accomplishments'" for cars i have owned and considered to be "slammed." Sorry if they're a tad to large, I'm not feeling like resizing these.
