    Question vehicle tilt

    I have a '96 g20.

    Is there any particular reason why my car tilts tward the passenger side?

    It sits this way both on stock and b&g lowering spings.

    Is there any way to adjust the vehicles tilt?

    If you didn't replace them they may be your problem since they are the same part of your original suspension that you have on your car still. WHat color is your car and where do you cruise?

    Like Blue93G20 said, your stock shocks are probably gone. You'll need to get stiffer shocks to go with those springs. KYB AGX adjustable shocks are your best bet.

    You can drive on slanted roads from now on, if you like. Or stack/slant some books on your seat and then you'll be straight. My friend's Honda does the same thing ever since he dropped his car, but its a Honda so I'm not even gonna mention anything about it.

    Y'know, I always wonder about those lesbian aunts that happen to have kids. Is your aunt like that?

    Well, did you measure before you lowered it too? I did the same thing, and before I lowered it, it was slanted toward the passenger side. It is only like a quarter of an inch, but it still annoys me. I do not think that our shocks are shot YET, my father said that it is just the way that the car sits. If you want, I could have him measure some other Gs that come in his shop.

    Another thing-did you get the wheels aligned after you lowered it?

    I had the wheels aligned today and the shop noticed that my tires were bad and my alignment was off for a while.

    So i have new tires and my shocks are fine and still in place.

    No more vehicle tilt at all.

    I'm dark green with white Infiniti Grafix. and a painted dent in my rear passenger door.

    Any good inexpensive body shops in tucson?

    "Should I get an alignment or not after lowering, or any other suspension mods?

    Well some will argue, that some drops don't effect the camber, or toe. So you don't need to get one.

    Lowering the car does the following
    1.)creates more negative camber
    2.)can change your toe angle (usually toe in)

    Putting on a wider tread width tire (195 to 205) will change toe angles"


    I picked that up from this page:
