FANTASTIC !

ive checked my tracking just on basic gauges and it was still nigh on 0,i dont think springs have too much effect compared to a coil over set up,the car still drives true and pulls up nice and square,i am monitering my tyres however as i dont want it scrubbing them off,if so i may go 4 the...

each to there own oppinion!,crusty made his desicion on the feedback given from other cliosport members ,the way i looked at it was that i wanted to lower the car not heighten it,if that was the case i would have kept it on the original springs.thats why i sent my sportlines back.

There wasnt much difference in price,i havnt heard any bad reports about the springs but who knows,there is a lot less body roll and it feels a bit tighter in the bends,i found that my cup would try to break away on the limit with the standard set up(but still bloody good) where as now it dosent...

i didnt have the sportlines on long as i was unhappy with the way it sat and after spending an hour lowering it i was slightly peed,the sportlines did not feel as harsh as the apex but not alot of difference if you know what i mean,the cups are firm to start with,but both good quality springs...

yea thats the apex springs,it rides slightly harder than the standard ones and handels slightly better but i aint pushed the car really,havnt got any photos on a flat as yet only fitted then a week ago,will try nd get sum could post them soon as i get them,i much prefer these springs as the car...

i had a set of sportlines and they wernt to my taste,as i found on my cup that it seemed to slighly heighten the rear and not alot of difference to the front,i have just fitted a set of apex 40mm and im more than happy with end result

what time ? may it have been me lol

as long as there is reciepts for work and parts i cant see a problem,a stamped book does look good but it may have just been took to the dealer for an oil and filter change just soley to have the book stamped(seen this many a time as i have worked in a few of main dealers).and if the vehicle...

tidy looking 52 reg 172 in silver just up from metro station (seaburn)then turned left any 1 ??

seen a 57 reg 197 pulling out of junction opposite jet petrol station,with an elderly(i think no offence intended) gentelman driving,like a silver colour looked immaculate and give it the boot up the road class !!

cheers guys !

any 1 know the paint code for the colour of the turinis on the 182 trophy want to get my cup wheels done this colour thanks:approve:

spot on !

is it a viper kit ? if so where did u get it ?

cheers for top comments guys all the hard work so far has paid off(and my obsessive cleaning dissorder aswell ha),thinking of getting the turinis done same colour as 182 trophy ones in near future,here is the rear photo i should have used as other one is before i lowered it.

the springs were a 40mm drop but to be honest they havnt took that much off the height,has stiffened it up slightly,from what i can tell it seems to handle better,although havnt pushed it too much as i only fitted them friday night and the weather aint been the best where i am but happy with end...

im going to have a bash at the belt in the next month or so as its coming up to 5 year old,never done 1 on a 172 before but cant imagine it to be too hard i hope ha

hi,all i have a 03 reg 172 cup,i bought a blue flame cat back system when i first got the car,which at first i thought sounded ok,it is quite a nice looking pipe x2 small ovals which sit nicely under the bumper,but as the exhaust bedded in the drone got worse and worse,the exhaust has x3...
