Cars with drive shafts are never normally a issue with lowering as the CV joints are much more flexible to the angle.

Prop shafts with UJ's can be a issue with the angle when lowering. Amazons are not usually a problem but 940's are much more sensitive.

When you lift/lower a car with a 5 link the panhard rod will want the length correcting to bring the axle into centre. This is mostly a issue with wider wheels.

Suspension is always a comprimise in function and also looks. The best suspension for racing at Silverstone is going to be nothing like one needed for racing a Forest track. A original Amazon will drive fine down a rough gravel farm track yet a new S90 will struggle on a lot of single track roads let alone a farm track.
