Is it gonna look ok they were saying 30mm drop at back and 28mm at the front look at my car what do you think it wont go to low will it. will it look better. Can you show me yours. shall l or should i not.

see your gap from wheels to arch looks good mine has a massive gap your wheels 18's or 17's

 

Heres mine next to the misses evo, sitting n 16"s just now i have got 17"s inovit redlines but waiting till the new brakes come before swapping.

 

lol just read your spec 17's

 

yeah 17s mate,

the picture son "view my scoob" are not all recent so some are with Teins and some without, heres a recent one

 

makes it look so much better and what about the ride did you have to get the geo all set up.

 

even more Recent (last weekend)



appently dont have to get the GEO setup but is advisable to, mine is going in soon,

ride is much better more stiffer perfect ride IMO,

Improves the handling nicely

Old pics;

 

Would be rude not too, esp as only had mine fitted last saturday





JQ

 

is that uttoxeter racecourse?

sorry its off topic

 

JQ do you have photos of what it looked like before and whats size rims and tyres, do they touch arches

 

you gettin lowering springs or coilovers?

coilovers will give you better control over the ride height

 

i am getting tein springs. now i am confused talk to me about coilovers

 

My Tein SS Coilovers (with top mounts) are arriving tomorrow . Should be on the car in a few weeks........

 

LOL no its Bath racecourse

Heres a before and after pic

Before

After


Tyres are 225/18/35.
No rubbing, as yet But that may be due to my et.(of which I have forgot, sorry

P.s where did you get your front splitter and whats it called
Love it

 

ps handling is sooooooooooooooooooooo much better now

 

lowering springs are just shorter stiffer springs, and lower the car. coilovers allow you to adjust ride height by altering the length of the coiled spring rather than the actual length of it. thats a terrible explanation! sorry

 

thats mine with 4 on front and 4 on back

unreal handling imho

 

 

Sorry about the poor quality photo.

 

My Tein coilovers before I changed to whiteline.

 

the splitter is called a jun splitter you can get it of ebay. cost me 40.00 and then 70.00 for spraying and fitting. just a note if you do buy do not get it bolted on it must be bonded on and then screwed in at each front arch way.
when the car is lowered i think these splitters look amazing. cant wait till friday but not sure about coilovers or springs is there a big price difference.

 

Where or who on eBay did u get it for 40 quid, that's well cheap
Looking really nice on yours
Springs are around 150-200, I think coilovers are 500+
If I had the cash, as mentioned above I would go for coilovers as you can manually set-up your suspension.

try again

 

Another pic of mine. Still not a great pic.

 

that is looking nice.

 

i will check my ebay account and get back to you tomorrow to let you no. they go for about 80.00 but this guy was cheap half the price i thought i was dropping myself into it but when it came very little prep work.
