Your reviews were one of the reasons that convinced me Jon, appreciate that, thanks! Cheers Tom! You will definitely be able to do springs yourself. Springs only I reckon I could do in a couple of hours now lol!! Not sure yet mate but need to lose a bit of the arch as I have scrubbing atm...

Thanks Everyone! I have a bit of scrubbing on tight roundabouts... Hoping that the 15's will solve this and may have to chop a bit out of the liners!! Oh hell no!!! HAHA, let's just say it doesn't feel any worse than the Eibachs, and if anything, it feels a bit more point and go!! Ride...

FLOLOLOL! My favourite is the number plate blanking fail!!

Good effort! Stance 1 Practicality 0

My immediate thought after purchase lol... buy cheap buy twice and all that!

Thanks people :D

Went out with the camera just for you fellow BG owner!! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?604494-Racelands-Coilover-Pics-Haterz-Gon-Hate!&p=8089386#post8089386

Good God that is perfect.... So much want!

Scary as hell when I swapped for sportlines a few months back and found one of the fronts had sheered.... Sod doing it deliberately Awaits chopped springs vs raceland thread...

FLOL :D

I still need to adjust the height and get it aligned (raise the back and see if it scrubs with my 15's on at the front) but overall fairly happy with how it stands. Took me about 4 hours to fit on my own and spent about 5 and a half hours on the stands due to lost tools and a panicky thread on...

Nice steve!

^ This, looks like a scoprion imola system

Not sure yet, I'll get back to you. Only driven them for 10 mins....

^ Cheers mate, that's exactly what I did. All finished, apparently the threads are shorter so that explains the lack of thread left visible after the final topmount nut...

Managed mine today mate, thanks for the tips yesterday. My car is sitting very similar to yours. I went for fully down on the back and about 3"1/8 from the bottom of the thread on the front.... Currently have very minor front scrubbing on the front right on left hand sharp corners. Gonna fit...

Out of those I'd have the tamron, it's one I am considering myself. For my 450D the first upgrade I purchased was a 50mm F1.8. Can't speak highly enough of it and it does wonders for your understanding of photography!

That's fair enough. Each to their own. Although until you are spending upwards of £600 your not getting anything that is "sheepishly" described as a good handling coilovers, so the racelands serve the purpose of bridging the gap between springs and coilovers. Equally, for any road coilover, how...

This is my exact reason. I have just fitted them. I am yet to track the car although I intend to in the future. If they aren't up to it then I may upgrade but for the time being I do not want to spend half the value on the car on suspension... If I was to do that in all honesty I would rather...

^ Appreciate that. I have dropped it to the floor and I now have the required topmount gap... Phew, thanks everyone But the thread on the top is just flush with the nut after nipping it up, and I am sure that there was a few mm poking out on the standard dampers!

This is plan B lol! Cheers

Thanks for the reply! Can't for the life of me remember lol! Been staring at it all day!! I thougt it was coilover tophat, metal bearing then the donut and tophat thingy together, then the retaining bolt before passing through the hole in the body... again not sure on that though?!

The bits circled in green are what I have left in place bar the retaining nuts on the top... Correct in doing so? Any ideas how to fix my topmount problem?

Any takers.... I'm at the stage where I lower it to the floor and see if I can correct it then... Or take the front assembly off and apart, and start again...

:bump: Order of strut reassembly.... Removed the spring retaining bolt but left the top of the coilover strut in place ("Raceland" lol *see other thread just started) Then bearing, top hat and donut, 6mm bolt, through the bodywork into the bonnet, top donut and bolt... Anyone??

Basically all I have left to do is bolt up the front struts, but currently my top mounts are sat like this: and I know they should sit like this.... Where have I gone wrong? Hub is not completely bolted up yet, wheels are still off the car and so it is not on the floor. The only weight it...

Website is all in french but currently states "bonjour, je fais un test de produit, merci de votre vi" http://www.orbisoud.com/read.php?id=16092005115620 Or "hello, I am a product test, thank you for visiting" lol. No idea if the site is down for maintenance?! Maybe PM one of our French...

Lol at not accepting a lower offer so palming off all the niggles along with it :D I do wonder if some dealer actually even check (or care) about some of the stuff mentionned.

I'd have the orbisoud over any 182 system if I could warrant the spend. I believe a French Co still sell them. My favourite sounding exhaust for the 1*2 by a clear mile :D

I might make an appearance if a crowd are going!
