Lowering 3/4"
 
I would like to lower just the front 3/4". Nothing more. Any suggestions as to who makes springs? I can't seem to find anyone that only drops 3/4"....seems everyone is 1.2" and living up here in WI, thats to low with the crap roads we have. Thoughts.

I am running the Eibach kit it doesn't lower the car to much.
The roads here in California are basically like you're on a rally course
I didn't want to lower my car to much either you really need room so you won't bottom out constantly.

Here are the specs.

Cut the springs. You have to look at the springs closely while they are loaded and pay attention to how the ends are constructed. I did this on my '8 Z33 in the rear and found out that there were about a couple coils on the free end (bottom) that can be altered. I measured and ended up cutting about 1/3 of a coil to achieve a 3/4" lowering.

I have the HKS hypermax IV GT coilovers on my car and they are preset from HKS factory for 3/4” drop. I left them alone and the drop is perfect for me!
