I guess your right. I put the amsoil filter on because I'm running amsoil in the entire car. Do you know how much the relocation kit goes for? :cheers:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (vettethret)
Post a pick of your car!
I've never seen one THAT low. I can fit one finger between my rear tire and the wheelwell and that is about all that I could handle cruising around for anything more than a showcar. I can't imagine how you can drive it anywhere sitting any lower. Of course the streets in Seattle are less than ideal! :rolleyes:
I'm sure it looks cool. Let's see! :yesnod: :yesnod:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (PHAT CHANCE)
As soon as I can get ahold of a digital camera I will post. Believe me, driving around town is ok, the roads is SC are good. It's the dam parking lots that kill me.I actually have to avoid some spots all together or park a half mile away and walk. I guess I'm a freak, but people are always snapping their heads when I drive by.Everytime I'm at a gas station I always get, "I've never seen a vett that low.
I'll post as soon as I can! :cheers:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (vettethret)
Dude, find a dig camera soon and post your bad boy pics. Have you considered the front-end roller kit from A&A or do you have one already installed? http://www.stores.yahoo.com/corvette...aa-103-sc.html . I've heard this kit can really help on extreme lowered cars. I can't wait to see your ride. :cool: :cool: :cool:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (DC5)
DC5,
I have the rollers and the frame savers. They did'nt come in until a week after it was slammed.I scratched the shi$ out of the bottom of the rockers. I'm fine when I'm driving, it's the steep driveways and speed bumps that hurt.I just moved into an apartment building and had to make a custom ramp of thick a@@ wood because there is a large rain gutter before I enter and the car got flippen stuck the first time I tried to pull in, and yes, I do have to use them everytime I pull in and out.I will be moving within the next 6 months. The biggest thing that scares me when going over the speed bumps is somehow popping out the Z06 rear vents I had WCC put in and of course the oil filter. I posted a thread to see if anyone near me had a digital camera. :eek:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (vettethret)
I have to see this. :eek:
You should just go pick up a disposable camera, take some quick pics, get 1-hour developing, scan them, and post 'em!
I have to see what must be the ultimate slam!

I'm thinking this is going to be a let down when we do see the pics (no pun intened). The man has a typically lowered car with the wrong filter on it. End of story.

When I got my car -3 years ago. It came with a filter that hung below the pan. I though that was really stupid. First oil change fixed that!

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (jschindler)
Well I don't think you'll be dissapointed. I just found out that I can take pictures without the digital camera and have kinkos scan them. I will do this over this weekend and have one of you guys tell me how to post the pictures. I'll try to get under the car but I think it will be almost impossible. All you guys who think I'm full of shi! will see what I mean when I say the car is dumped. Does anyone know how kinko's will scan this and what I will have to do once they give whatever they will give to me? I can't wait to post these pics :yesnod: :cheers:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (vettethret)
Ok first question is...How the hell do you get this thing onto a lift to be serviced?
Having the rear tires tucked cant possibly be good for the cars suspension not to metion high speed handeling. Why o why???
Are you trying out for a spot in LowRider Magazine?? I dont think they feature Vettes that often. :crazy:
We want pics of this thing. :smash:

Re: 02 COUPE TOO LOW NEED.............. (Mark V)
Mark V - your car looks awesome.
Check how low this guy is. This is the two 2x12 test. An to your point, Mark V, this one was a bitch to get up in the air to change oil. We just did this one at a mod day recently in Houston.
