no....it has nothing to do with the suspension. the cup kit replaces the flimsy cup holders with 2 sturdy ones that can even hold "super-size" drinks.

don't tell me.... you let some air out of the tires and that will lower the car.

maybe he's not an idiot, however, before asking the most basic questions, he should do a quick search like several members have recommended him to do. And trust me, if you or him think I'm being a punk now, just do a search and you'll see what you are in for.

LOL

Oh yeah..... just in case anyone has forgotten that this is a post for a H&R Cup Kit for sale, and NOT a "what does it do?" post........

$400 is a pretty good price =)

well, after spending all this time posting and replying, you STILL don't know how much the H&R cup kit will lower your car. Just do a damn search.

I don't know exactly how much it lowers the car, because it is made for the 320 which is a lighter vehicle. It can be used in the 430 with no problems, it just lowers it even more. I changed all of my spring pads to #1's when installing my cup kit, and the car was slammed pretty good. I bent my fender on a driveway, so I put #3's back in. Here's a pic......
