So after 10 days of waiting for my Fk Highsport Coilovers to arrive.. They finally came. I left for Stirling at 9 this morning..to meet up with Martin_89 who kindly fitted them for me.
What can i say, top guy and i really appreciate the fact that someone decided to give up there time to help me...
in Irvine today @ about 4.30 in a small carpark across from.. i dunno ? ? just down from lidl on the left after the ligts haha. Had a huge renault sport 182 sticker on the back window. looked kinda tacky.
Can any of you guys help me out with the fitting of coilovers ??
Some cash provided.
Just got my hands on some & not fancying garage labour costs to be honest.
Cheers :)
Looking for one :).
Think the 1.2 deserves a nice wee sporty sound now as its looking pretty good.
Dont know much about them tbh.
Give me the info guys.
Thanks :)
Not happy with the Apex 60mm kit. The car just isnt low enough for me, so im going to be looking to sell the kit on. Spring and shocks only been on the car for 2 months.
What coilovers am i looking at for my 1.2 16v ?
what prices ? where to get them ? etccc.
Any advice appreciated :)
Not sooo much a meet. But me & Merk decided to meet up & get a few pics. None of us are photographers and we dont have big beastly cameras. But hey it was good fun :)
Thanks for looking people :)
Decided to spend a few hours on the car.
First off i resprayed my badge black as i ended up scratching it :(
Gave the engine bay a clean for the first time. Not the best, but decided to give it a go. Just used a damp cloth at first to rub alot of crap off then used AG bumpercare :). Still...

Red front calipers...
By the fact i just bought the Apex 60mm suspension kit & now im dying for coilovers so i can go down about 80mm. love that looooooooowwwww look on the standard wheels. Even though my cars so much lower than a standard car. Help ? :( haha.
Going for either 172 wheels refurbed in white.
White turinis, black turinis or something similar to turinis.
Black or white ?? whats the thoughts ?
If anyone could do a photooshop or post pics of your own car, that would be spot on :)
Thinking about my next mod for the car & i dont know if i should keep my Dynamique 15's or go for the bigger 172 16's. Here is how the car is sitting at the moment. Just been lowered 60mm on apex springs & shocks a week ago:
Feel as if i really want the car hanging over the wheels but i...

Dont really know how this came about, but got a picture to show.
Its just to the right of the foglight & isnt too bad.
Any ideas how to get rid of it or at least mask it a bit ??
Thanks

On my drivers side i think.
Everytime i brake im getting this crunching sound from my drivers side wheel, its disgusting. I went out for a look and i think the brake pad has worn and its making a groove in the brake disc ??
anyone got any ideas
thanks for any help
Went out with my mate today, to take the first pics of my new Clio after my crash. I know im going to get the usual comments "needs lowered etc". i have recently ordered:
An RS grill.
French style plates.
Silvatech bulbs & some white led sidelights.
I was going to lower it 60mm on standard...
For a 40mm drop ??
The guy at the garage says ive got no chance with 60mm springs and standard shocks. So i suppose im just going to be a little more practical. I know that 40mm doesnt look as good, but theres speedbumps on every street in this town.
Any help is much appreciated. :)
Should i buy for a 60mm drop on a 54 Dynamique ? ?
Ive ben on K-Tec but most of the springs i seen were for 30mm drops & stuff.
Also will i need new shocks ?? If ayone can link me to some stuff that would be great. Im also on the lookout for 172 replica skirts. If ayone can link me to something...
Does anyone have any pics ?
Im hopefully going to colect a set on Saturday & i was just wondering if they will actually fit a Dynamique & have no problems when its lowered ??. Id love to see some pictures. All help is really appreciated :). Thanks.
