So anyone recommend me some coilovers 60mm bolt spacing purely for lows?
ill only be using the fronts and it's only temporary so quality isn't essential :)
Ekaj - tried to pm you earlier but closed the page by accident after 20 mins of typing on my iPhone -.-
want to go as (drive able) low as possible! Don't mind scrapin the splitter as its grazed underneath anyway! And last night I caught it on a curb and ripped an end off! It went back ok, just...
Okay, I'm looking in to going lower at the front on my 182ff
currently sitting on brand new cup packed shocks and custom eibach springs..
im looking to drop the front another 10-20mm!
Aiming for lows not handling, I know it's not everyone's fav idea, it's only temporary til I get bored..
so...
Sorry bud I thought I replied, did in my head anyways haha!
they came already on the wheels so I'm not too sure?
ill get a close up picture for you tomorrow, they are abit of a mess and need new center stickers but ill get round to that soon :)
15mm rears should be fine as I'm looking to get the rear arches pulled out / flared to suit ;)
cheers for all the comments!
as said rockin lows for now, I personally like it :)
Very tempted to get a set of cooksport springs when they come back in stock, but for now I'm rockin lows!
gonna look in to custom coil springs to lower the front a wee bit more!
ive got a set of 20mm front spacers and 15mm -1.5 rear hub spacers soon to go on, but I may need to get the rear...
Wanted a set for so long but didn't know what they were called or where to get them in 16"
these came up for sale on here, got told I was 3rd in line and my hopes were smashed
til I had a pm saying 1 and 2 have dropped out or not replied so I snapped them up!
they are staying silver til I'm...
Bought these a while ago and was planning to fit them before CSS but managed to break my locking wheel nut key so the process was delayed..
Sent for a new key and finally managed to get them fitted... I can't stop smiling at them!
Just a few iPhone pics from last night! Carmarthen...
Well it's got cup spoiler and looks like cup splitter? (Looks slightly bigger than a fabia one?)
so I'd say it has cup suspension, looks like standard ride height to me :)
Firstly
since I had lowering springs fitted, my top mounts (standard rubber) squeek/squeel when I turn the wheels 3/4s - full lock.. What can I do to stop the noise? Is it something I can oil/lubricate? Don't want to cause problems so thought I'd ask..
secondly
what can I do to lower the...
I wish I could go back and take more pics, I had a great day and really enjoyed playing with an actual camera rather than my iPhone lol

dont get excited, I've never filmed anything before, so most of the footage is shakey or bad angles or both, just have to see how well the misses can edit it all together lol
Pretty sure I had the only rb 182 with stripes and not seen any pics of it from any one yet haha
i didn't take a pic...
So it turns out i took 247 photos and a few videos.. im uploading the pics and ill chose my favourites to post soon as they are ready!
and my girlfriend is helping me edit a video, sort of a Montage if you want to call it that haha.. which wont be ready for a week or so..
Typical CS.. some one buys something new and shiny, hes happy with it, then bandwagon come to piss on his parade and shoot down any reply he has with "yeh but it will break".. gotta love it
OP just enjoy it, like you said you have been :)
So glad I got to see this car In the flesh (well metal) haha i was the welsh bloke that stopped to talk to you while you we're giving it a quick clean ;) really nice to meet you bud, cheers for talking to me
Really enjoyed the day, got to talk to a lot of people which I'm normally pretty reserved about (get nervous quite easy) was my first car meet and won't be the last! I took a good 200+ photos and abit of a video which I will edit and upload on Monday!!
Great turn out, great location, shame...
My camera works and the rain hammers down, rain stops and camera refuses to accept my sd card! Fiddle with it for 20 mins it works!! Get out the car, rain comes back! Arghhh!!
Me and my brother just arrived at a travel lodge about 4 miles from the iwm, set off from South Wales at 4pm-ish, but stopped at Leigh Delamare for lunch/dinner what ever you call it, was a nice drive down but quite tired now!
Doubt ill be sleeping as I'm quite excited, this is the first car...
