Tanable GF210 vs. Warranty?

[Evo VIII]

Hey guys, as the title says, I am contemplating getting the tanable GF210's to lower my evo, but the only thing that is stopping me is my warranty. In any of your experiences, how has the dealership delt with lowering springs? Are there any laid back dealerships that will not care?

I don't want to void my whole warranty for the sake of lowering my car. :shock:

they dont care bout lowering springs

Whoa? I was under the impression that anything other than stock = no warranty for that area of the car.

wow, i thought someone was answering their own question.

i don't have direct experience but I am sure that if you have engine problems and you have lowering springs, you won't have a problem.

if you blow a shock or scrape your oil pan off, don't expect to have it fixed on warranty if you have lowering springs

those stock shocks will hardly ever blow so don't worry about it

Thanks for the input guys. One other thing is that I noticed that the mechanic at the Capitol Mitsubishi is a friend of a friend of my dad's. I guess my dad knows him also because the mechanic recognized my last name. Do you guys think it would do any good to somehow get it in writing from him that my warranty won't be affected from the springs?

It was worth a try. :lol: By the way, I know this is off topic, but do you also know how to blackout headlights? I know you do taillights because I've seen pictures of your work and they are :thumbsup: . Shoot me a PM if you do headlights, and we can arrange something in the near future.
