BA Astina Stock Height
Hi all,
Just wondering what the stock height of a BA Astina is? Mine hasn't been the stock height since 2003. And I'm an old fart and cannot remember what it was. Can someone when the got a spare few moments, measure the distance from the centre of the front and rear hubs, to the top of their wheels arches please? The above picture has the wheel removed. Please measure with the wheels on and the car on a flat surface please. Cheers, Ryan Last edited by project.r.racing; 03-07-2009 at 11:10 AM. |

Dunno, his Cucso front and rear camber tops add height a little. Maybe 20mm I think from memory? and may not matter due to the JICs fitted.

Ah, will check on the weekend as it's parked on a hill atm.
But the Cusco tops only add 20mm with the standard shocks, not the coilover tops.

Hah nah, that's pretty much level. Must be the (apparently) different BA Hardtop guards!
