nah im using a slide hammer, tried the nut and bolt method and also tried hitting it with a bar from the other side with the other torsio bar removed. ive also measured each side and it isnt lop sided

Does anybody have any ideas how to release a seized torsion bar from a open bar system. Ive managed to get one side out, but even with plenty of heat and penatrating fluid i cannot get the other out. With only the one bar out, the maximum I can lower the back is about 20mm

so the best way to keep the handling is only drop the back 35mm, which is the same as the front lowering springs. therefore it will keep the back higher than the front

What drop has everybody got on there 16 valver torsio bars, with 35mm lowering on the front. Is 55mm too low and effect the handling+Braking

did you have problems with the springs on the old dampers and what size wheels have you got

which springs are best when going for a 55mm drop on a clio with 16s, and is it wise fitting new dampers with this type of drop.

do you have to change the dampers when going for a drop of 60mm, ive got 16s on my 16v and was looking at a 60mm drop on the oe dampers

why you selling it

does anybody else have problems with there 16 valve backfiring and sparking from there exhaust when letting off the accelorater at high revs, i have fitted a stainless exhaust, induction kit and a de cat pipe. Would a chip alter the mixture and sort this out

Has anybody chipped there 16 valve with the hill power chip, if so how much did it cost and what performance did it give?
