Forgot to mention also wanting to get
alcantara front and back door cards/plastics
Ktr stealth (quieter version)
Maybe replica skirts and an rs grill aswell.
Progress is slow atm as having to pay off many garage bills, due to all the servicing i have been wanting done. Also have road tax to pay off. Unfortunately had to put 2 of my dynamique wheels back on due to pothole damage! The roads seem to be literally riddled with them these days...
Mines looked identical to yours when i got mine, first simple cost affective mods i done were silvervision indicator bulbs, ice white bulbs and sidelights, smd boot and glove box lights and a new smd rear number plate light and a new holder. For interior since i had a sport seats i bought off a...
Ill do that then, just need to be careful i suppose.
Yeah haha, i have a friend with an astra estate lowered on ta technix and they're as low as they can go and that was incredibly bouncy.
Yeah that's true. Im sure they will be worth it in they end. Have to wait a fortnight for them to...
Might do the same then, just fire them off up the back of the driveway or something.
Yeah the roads about me are totally riddled with potholes and that but in sure ill cope haha.
£220 for the coilovers? The ones i got on ebay were £290. Cant remember the sellers name
Ill probably be a bit weary when compressing my springs, especially with all the horror story's about them, but apart from that should be fine.
Haha, cheers mate. If their harsh cause i have heard they are a bit, that wont really bother me. Especially with already running on 60mm Lo lowering...
Ill probably do the same, get them on and think lets just slam it!
My springs and shocks on just now are nackered so it will be a relief to get everything replaced.
Hahaa, best get the WD40 out the tool box then maybe buy an extra tin as well!
Haha, yeah it is a bit. Mine being the little "scene" bro
Thanks a lot mate. Yeah its a bit of an in your face colour, especially when clean. Certainly gets some attention though.
I think with mine i am going to replace my top mounts. With the lowering springs i have just now + standard shocks. The mounts have been getting a fair beating.
Anyone know of good places to get new strut top mounts?
I haven't fitted mines yet, but i suspect i will come in to problems as well. Cause really ill be a first timer at this.
Hopefully someone can help the both of us out. :)
I have all of that, ill give it a bash when i have the time. How low can you get these coilovers to go. It says only 70mm but i have heard people saying that the same coilovers can go lower than that
Has anybody fitted these to their car them self's?
If so i was wondering if i could ask a few questions
Do i need spring compressors,
Are they hard to do,
And roughly what would i need to do them my self.
Bit of a boring little update but after my new clutch and my car passing its m.o.t i have decided to do a bit of maintenance. Away to get fitted are a new radiator,timing belt,spark plugs and its going to get an oil change.
Also decided to treat my self/car to coilovers and probably sell the...
