Hi Guys, as a non-Maserati owner but an Italian car enthusiast I agree that the car appeals more to the eye when lowered.
You are probably aware:-
Lowering the suspension will drop the instantaneous roll centres down to nearer the designers 'fully laden' condition so camber and bump stop contact will be affected at the very least. (on my GTV the rear toe control is affected as well for example)
Be sure that whoever you guys select really knows what they are doing.
Personally I would first research whether the factory have done any compatible models with lowered suspension (someone mentioned something about another model in an earlier reply and this spec. would have been passed off by their track testers/engineers as safe) - or go for a reputable company with a Masser competition background.
This reply, like several of my previous may be regarded as a 'smelly space suit' jobbie but I hate to see people paying good money for incompetent or potentially X results.
eg. My brother paid mega mega buxx for a Jaguar SS100 replica kit. Took me proudly for a spin when completed and , whilst impressed by the appearance, I couldn't help noticing the harsh, even for 'period', ride and the pattering front wheels which I tactfully mentioned.
Goodwood FOS I tackled the 'top guy' on their stand and he denied all responsibilty as he said he had bought the business/design from someone else Guv.
Later I drew out the geom. and did some detail drawings which would just about sort the problems within the space constraints for about 50 quid. I gave them to my brother. He said he couldn't change it because of insurance issues, (modified vehicle) fair enough!
Subsequently the company brought out an update kit (mega buxx again) which looked as if it might sort the main issue, but not all. My brother bought a kit but has not fitted it (manufacturers update, so box ticked)
Well g'day to Y'all now. Just off into the sunshine to smarten the car bodywork as my gloss black repaired door panel is showing up the rest of the car and I quite enjoyed doing the work!
