Hottuning Coilover Owners.. Look here...
« on: 03 July 2009, 17:45 »
Hey guys.. i was one of the first batch of people to buy the hottuning coils back in 2006 and have compared my car to a mates recently and i cant get anywhere near as low as him...

So after talking to hottuning I might have the wrong shocks.. Could everyone who has pics of their car please post up a side pic showing roughly how low you are and whether they are bottomed out please.

Just wondering did everybody here replace their top mounts with VR6 mounts too?
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3
