As you can see, havent really got much done yet, quick wash, polish nd blacked the bumpers, swapped the lights and also the plates and put new gsi seats in the front, next plan of action, retrim the rears to match, pollybushes and eccentric top mounts, and some borrowed alloys for pvs lmao

spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 07:24 PM
on jamex coilovers at the moment
stevie-p
02-06-10, 07:27 PM
indeed if you can drive it! take the helper springs out the fronts and custom rear springs from djdommyp or ebay
spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 07:32 PM
yer i might have to go with that, not so much the front thats a problem, just want the back to sit a bit lower really so will sort that first
stevie-p
02-06-10, 07:44 PM
yes around £50 you can get 90 100 110mm rear springs delivered then she will be low at the back
spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 07:47 PM
yer i recon that will be good, needs 120 realli i recon from lookin but 110 it is unless i can find anything, anybody know of loons that low?? for pics etc as inspiration, im gettin the rear seat retrimmed to match the front after pvs aswell mate so i will send you pics along the way
spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 07:48 PM
any idea what the backs at at the moment mate by the way??
stevie-p
02-06-10, 07:53 PM
supposed to be 100mm but im not sure id say 60-70mm the collapsed rears are lower and 120mm you wont be able to go anywhere heres some pics...

thats on bags
spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 08:00 PM
i was basing the 120 on it actually being 100mm on the back, i dont know how high they are meant to be on the back so i have nothing to base it on, i just want it to sit a bit more level really, looks high on the rear at the moment, will see how it goes, got a few other things planned first and yer i want it to be drivable as its my daily so yer, gotts get the patches sorted and blended soon hopefully so will look mint then :D
spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 08:01 PM

stevie-p
02-06-10, 08:03 PM
was mearly showing you lol look at my project thread the first pics thats standard these are hard to slam due to the standard height but its doable as per octagonpauls? 130mm
i kwpt it as that and she sat level the last few pics in my project but on my 14's she was rubbing out everywhere as underneath is lower than the valence downpipe etc
stevie-p
02-06-10, 08:04 PM
have a look through here...http://rat-look.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=175&start=90 but then your looking 13's and low profi's and will mess up the rolling radius
spunkeymonkey
02-06-10, 08:06 PM
yer im getting some 14s i think, will be on the car for pvs but i will see how they look and if i like them or not before buying them
