Lowering question

[artuan00]

Want to Get her lowered when ive got the new wheels on but not TOO much

Question is:
Will I need to uprate the dampers if I drop her say 30mm? (35mm is my max)

We all know that stock micra suspension is fairly squishy. Will the lowered springs be stiffer to compensate for the loss of coils?

Alternatively is there a way to harden the stock dampers?

In the rc world we just put thicker oil in the dampers

Thanks in advance guys

No you dont need to change the dampers, i used fk lowering springs -35mm and they stiffened the ride up nicely. along with alloys and decent tyres made the car handle a whole lot better(Y)
