I hated mine and would never use them again.

cant comment on the newr hottuning ones but the early ones were really good for the money, (red springs, blue rings)

they just like my jamex ones and mine have been superb over the last few years

Spent a couple of hours on the car this evening but decided to call it a night.

However got the rear coilovers fitted....here's a little peek at how she stands:



And here's how the front end looks:



Ready for me to fit the fronts in the morning

Cheers guys 

The bolts at the bottom of the struts were a b!tch to get off, ended up cutting 2 of them off 

That's about as low as i'm going to go with it tho, I can only just get my finger inbetween the wheel and arch 

[dom]

Right, thats them all fitted 

A quick pic, better ones to follow after she's had a good clean!



I almost ripped the front splitter off when reversing off my drive, had about 15mm clearance according to the old man.

My insurance company want to know if it's lowered more than 50mm, what does everyone think coz I haven't got a clue? 

As for the ride; it's miles better than I had expected after all the negative comments on here about them. It's not too harsh, a tad on the bumpy side but I can live with that. Almost no body roll and not a hint of understeer so far

That looks so much better mate. Glad you like it.

Back needs to go up.

Back needs to go up.

It looks better when it's not parked on a hill with the handbrake on!
