    rokkor coilovers on a 1.2 8v (52mm) ;)

    Yup it does work, annoyingly i can now see that you dont need to change the callipers and discs lol, tbh, after buying brake fluid and the new bolts ill need it probs wont be much cheaper than vmaxx, however, the better brakes will make for a more fun drive! And in total, it took 2 days, but...

    some punctuation would come a miss lol, but tbh, i dont really think its the coilovers to blame for that, have to tried raising it to the same height as standard suspension and seeing if it still makes the noise?? surely if it's scrubbing, there would be scrub marks?? and odd wear on hte...

    track rod end

    tips on getting the track rod end off the hub, all it seems to do when i undo it, is spin the bolt on the ball joint. I and not actually unscrew, probs because the thread on the end is abit rusty. how are you meant to get the nut off without using an impact gun?? thanks

    Venting a subwoofer?

    unless you're going for a proper system, id stay sealed, more often than not, ported enclosures need to be a lot bigger than the sealed equivelant. and ports need to be a certain size and length to acousticly amplify certain speakers. if you're good at box making, and dont mind the room then...

    Clio with 52mm bolt spacing

    theyll probs fit, might not be too snug though but even if they did you'd only get two springs, (hence the price) 90-98 clios had tortion bar on the back, and no springs. so unless you're going for the nose down look, i'd stick with the later.

    Fitting Coilovers

    the only thing you take off above the arch is the top cup, the bearings and rubber bit sit below the arch, but keep them aswell, and remove the transport nut?? or is that optional??

    3 points a window!

    if you have 43R stamped into the glass, it has a factory tint of around 30% adding anything to this will push it over the legal limit, what you should do, is fit a kill switch to your window motors, police come along, down they go, flick the switch, "sorry officer, theres no glass in them,"...

    Will lowering the back make the front go higher?

    if your cats hitting the floor, why dont you raise the back?? itll make everything in front of the front wheels slightly lower, but everything behind the front wheels slightly higher?

    Will lowering the back make the front go higher?

    normally there is a platform for the spring that screws up and down, and another smaller platform shaped nut that screws into the platform to lock it.

    Bigger Brakes - Lower Insurance?

    Insurance companies arn't dumb, they have the same thought we do, nobody will take a normal car, and put bigger brakes on it just incase you need to do a single emergency stop. They know people who mod the performance of a car, drive like a hero, people add brakes because they intend to...

    Show cage...

    ^^ as said, shwo cages wont act as a roll cage in a crash, they are litterally just for show, looks like someones arranging a group buy on normal cages in the for sale section, only half cages though

    uprated springs

    renault would have balanced up performance with comfort, practicality and cost, they would have been based on a certain compresion rate, and designed to work well with the designed shock however the speed they come off a production line, i doubt theyd be that accurate. so yes, cheep springs...
