How do I make sure the height is correct all round when adjusting the coilovers as she does look a bit high, especially at the back?


Measure from the bottom spring plate to a fixed point on the car and use a steel rule if you can.



 Insurance for me on the VR is £387 fully comp so not that bad.


Seems cheap :undecided:

Just wait for the fuel bills...  :grin: :grin:

I've already smashed out about £70 on fuel this month...and that's at £1.08 a litre....

Oh the joys!

The sound is worth it, just ask some of the guys that were at the JKM Rolling road day!  :cool:

Very Tidy. Not keen on mk3's usually but that is rather stunning.

I've done £70 a couple of weeks ago in a week.

I get a lift to work.

Although I think my 1.6 uses far more fuel then a VR ATM.
