juanchan Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I park mine in the mutlistorey every time I go to town as it's always half empty and less likely to get scratched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlT67 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Mine goes into the multistory carpark in town, I wouldn't like to say how close it is however, mine is at a fairly manageable height for the kit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pabs Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 shame on you attempting to use a multi-storey with such a nice car!!!! tut tut... Sorry mate, only joking - I didn't realise how low my leon was until I was coming DOWN the ramps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Fine for me. Stock suspension and no bodykit rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_blackman Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I took mine up the multi-storey car park in Cheltenham a few weeks back, fairly tight but no scrapes Was worried about the Nur spec exhaust but no worries, Stock bodykit though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snap.. but just got away with my stupidly low nose (also lowered slightly by super street suspension) but wasn't so lucky with the getting round the tight corners at the top of the ramps! why to they need curbs on the down ramps? Things to do... repair 1 side skirt.. ggrrrrrrrrrrr... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much is your car lowered out of interest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlT67 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 About the same as the optional extra bilstiens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Dublin Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I learnt the hard way too Might it have helped if you'd driven up the ramps backwards. HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShamelessTT Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Supras are quite low as cars go anyway, mines on stock blistens / springs and my nur spec some times scraps on multi storys (Mind you the fit of these is not the best ive seen).

hoff Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Thats not good mate. I have always resisted multi-stories. Mainly because the spaces are tiny and I dont trust other drivers:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I think mine runs on uprated springs, but at stock height, and although I have some lovely OEM side skirts and a NurSpec exhaust, I haven't experienced problems with any multi-storey or speed bumps since I've had my car. Sorry about your problems though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlT67 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 None at all then? The bilstiens are shorter than the standard aren't they...? Mine has definalty been lowered more than standard as it sits lower than a standard set up when parked next to one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
