What is the best size drop to acheive better handling? im not realy too bothered about look just want the car to handle better. ive been told anything past 50mm is too low and the car will handle worse is this true?
Alos is there anything else to consider like dropping the back more than the front or is best to keep it level?

as far i know the is best level, to low on the rear and u have oversteer, to low on the front and its understeer. < if im right.
think 30-40mm is best wiv sum dezent dampers
A lot of people have said 35mm for handling I think

35mm is the best drop for a S2 106 imo.
This is my 106 when i first got it...

It was sat on bump stop's and the ride was horrid.
Was a solid ride and because it was on bump stop's when you went round a corner at speed the was no give, so it would lose traction on the road.
35mm on the front and 1 notch on the torsion bar is best in my opinion.

35-40mm drop is reccomended. in my experice you should have the rear slightly higher as this helps dial out the understeer, depends what you want though. to low at the back can make it understeer, plus is uncomfortable. its abit complicated :)
