Lowered Suspension in Perth

Hi guys,

just noticed you now need a permit and inspection for suspension mods in Perth now. With my last car took to WA suspension and all done after a quick call to the insurance company. As long as the minimum clearance was >= 100m, there was not a problem.

The stock suspension on 120 needs to be a little stiffer (braking/cornering you can feel body movement) but I don't want a real harsh ride and too low drawing attention. There is a great deal on the Eibach Pro kit spring, this is 30mm lowering all around making the car on the limits of legal (would be approx 103mm). As stock there is not a huge wheel gap like you see on other cars. Other option is to buy some old M sport suspension (as stock on 135) if anyone wants to offload them as this is 15mm drop and stiffer but not sure it it would be worth it for minimal difference.

Am I too concerned about being on the lowering limit - appreciate your comments.
