cant even tell its moved :grin:
wind them all the way down lol :wink:
may just take time to settle down :afro:
-
fk's?
-
Yeh FK street pro kit,
-
same as me i think, they the ones that are roughly £170?
-
same as the ones i just got fitted,not as harsh a ride as some folk on here say about cheap coilovers,quite impressed with them,i went for a whiteline arb and adjustable drop links sits nice with the spacers on to,i'm leaving mine to settle until i come back from my hols in just over a week,then i think i can go a bit lower as it clears the speedbumps in my street ok
-
Nice now give her a wash :grin:
-
how many mm did you drop it?
-
yea im on fk's at the mo wound all the way down and cant fault them, you need more lows mate!!! i run r32 front bar, h&r drop links, whiteline rear bar, tt bushes and drives lovely
-
Looks better mate, and despite what people say, looks plenty low enough - then again - Im old now. :grin:
-
Look forward to plenty knocks and faults now lol
-
Looks loads better :afro:
-
better that mate :cool:
get front splitter sniffing road and deck it :grin:
-
Cheers for comments guys, to be honest as far a drop goes, i told my mate around 35- 400 mm, as my drive is steep, but to me its not about set measurements its about winding them down sitting her on the wheels and seeing what you think, we both agreed going down firstly to the point you can just put your fingers between the tyre and arch, then see how its settles in a week or two, and then adjust!
Am happy with it, been working today but will clean her later and get some pics up!
Love the drop though..... and when your driving it feels so much lower and tighter through the bends
Dan :smiley:
