Following the drive to Brands Hatch today, who fancies some of the same for the Bolney Jap meet on Sat 16th March?
Maybe meet again on the Jet A228 again at 10am?
Easy from there for the M20/M26/M25/M23/A23 drive down

Mega, so you're not going in the jacked up one then?
On a serious note, we were looking at the photos of Sunday, your car looked just as low as the RB5 Prodrive.
I don't know if they had a Prodrive "handling pack".
Don't forget that the "drive" will be very choppy with the same suzzies I have, you notice all the little ripples and bumps at normal speeds...spose thats why I have to drive at "higher" speeds
Chris, I take it you got your higher spoiler...which type did you get?
Markus, so I've heard...only jokin'
I've had a poxy day...but you know what they say..........."there's always someone worse off"
Cheers all, MD.

LOL
Has my wife been talking to you MD
I must admit in the photo's I thought my car didn't look too high, but in real life against your it does.
Had a good quote for supply of Eibachs for £142 delivered, just need to get some sensible quotes for fitting them.
Chris, glad Colin can sort you, I think you'll be pleased, had DJ Dunk asking for his number-Maybe I can get some commission from Colin

Mega, no I have never spoken to your wife, but YOU could tell her that the lowering is for her benefit, easier for her to get "Mini_Stream" into the car!!!
Sounds like a good price, check if the standard dampers are ok though. (?)
Chris, without a doubt, I have just got out of going to a scaffold inspection course...phew! They make me very very sleepy!
Good luck with your spoiler.
Speak you all later chaps, me not well...going to bed now.

LOL @ mini_stream, was thinking of names last night as it goes
When you're feeling better wouldn't mind hearing what the measurement is 'tween your wheel centre and the top of your arches front and rear....looking at a suspension thread some guys fitted Eibachs and he's only dropped 10mm
hardly worth doing for that drop!

John, we have gone off on a tangent here...about 50mm at the rear then.
I would ask around a bit, if you dont get any more than 10mm with "x" springs, it might be that Prodrive use a "taylor made" spring???
Dont forget also, we have 4 stone in the back (cage).
Good luck. ps. got my slicks today.

Yes, the Jets on the A228 just about 2 miles away from the M20 Jnt4 for those that don't know.
Best route is M20, M26, M25, M23, A23 I guess.
Taking a nice steady ride down, no rush as we don't need to be there till 11.30
