no.
you can get standard springs out, just remove the strut and unso the end and let it fly. if you are putting in lows then you can get away with a bit of weight on the spring and be able to do it up, standard springs not much hope get some spring compressors.

about $20 i think, not to sure.
get ultralows if you want lower again, i think you will find if you go any lower your car will be to low and not legal. 100mm is the minimum road to car clearance of the lowest point.

unless you can tuck everything even higher underneath the car, 3mm is hardly worth the effort of going lower.

Jim, Ask AdzELXR about the last thread.
My question is why do you want to go that low that you need to grind?

thanks, I can only suggest possibly try the gabriel or other lowered shock and see how it goes, the shocks i think are keeping your car higher then it should sit on ultra lows.

I didnt use spring compressors for the rear springs on my car. just jack the car up and undo the bolts, lower the jack, use a second jack or other wise put the chassis on a stand. then just pull the springs out. no compressor needed.
