timt, I think you might have missed my other post:

I don't know exactly how low, I will need to see when I get my wheels etc. I want the control arms to sit parallel.

I was going to go with 400# front 300# rear.

Sorry for being such a noob, but could you elaborate on your setup? Any reinforcing? Do you have a link to the rsr stuff? I am searching right now.

BTW I found a link on how to lower the front.

This is the front suspension in my 914

I have monoballs up top.. I think they are weltmeister

The front of the 914 is pretty stout... other areas of the tub could use reinforcement instead..

This is the rear suspension...

if that is the case, you might want to consider moving the spindles up on the strut.....most cost effective method is to have Chris Foley of Tangerine Racing modify a set for you.......after that the price doubles and triples for what your options are......
