See my garage for newage with Prodrive springs and 18" rims. The springs drop it around 30mm I think.

Lower the car only very slightly more than the Pro-drives/eibachs.

Cheers Matt, no problems wotsoever mate. Just took the standard springs off and put on the Teins.

No cutting of the stops was required.

Its stiffer than standard thats for sure but the ride is very good and not harsh at all. The handling has been transformed too, I also have a Whiteline ALK fitted and had the suspension geo rest to suit which you need done anyway when lowering your car. I had eibachs on my last car (which I hear are the same as the prodrive springs, or very similar) and the ride was virtually the same as the Teins are.

It depends how bad the B roads are, some of the roads where my parents stay I have to drive slower coz they're sinking into the peat and you just get thrown, but these are a nightmare aanyway!

The ALK reduced understeer and with the lowering springs its a nice setup, just need to sort the back end out now with an anti-roll bar and droplinks.

Jonny.
