No, but don't forget that when you slam it that much, not only will you make the ride much harder, you are also significantly altering the suspension geometry.  If you slam it that much and don't fit a camber correction kit at the same time you will wear through tyres like they're going out of fashion and long term may damage bearings etc.

you are all nutters  and i`m glad to be one of you`s..  so hello .

i have shipped my calibra turbo to oz to be with me . and as the Ozzie's don't know much about the good car i have joined here. i have modified it some but will be looking to play more with it . so i can take on the v8`s and v6`s .. to show what this little car can do. so i will be needing help and info on stuff but the first one is .. i have a small leak in  the sump and i need to know if the turbo sump is the same as the 16v one ???? or what one will fit. 2 what brakes calipers can i change up too with out any hassles. as i like to stop. when i have this sorted i will be back to make it go faster .
many thanks a Scotsman in oz

Noosa - nice place.  I've stayed there a couple of times when visiting my ex- & family up the Sunshine Coast.

Blimey Jaz, our paths cross a lot. I spend several weeks/ months a year in Noosa.
Have family living on Sunshine Beach, going there in Jan for a couple of months!

skorps, love to meetup and see your motor! If you need any parts, contact Mick at Hardparts.com.au - real sound bloke, lives in Noosa.

I wish I was so lucky.  I've only been over there 4 times, last time in January 2007 for my daughter's wedding up in Manley.
