if you like your car and want to keep for a while then get this http://www.pure-motorsport.co.uk/details.php?itemid=197&model=-1 job done!

there are obviously more ways of measuring, but I wouldn't just rely on manufacturer's claims alone, as I said GAZ for example can't give a usable 60 mm drop on the front, and going beyond 60mm is also impossible (talking from my experience) In a non sport yes, a 60mm drop is more achievable but...

have you measured beneath the subframe before and after? that doesn't look like a 60 mm drop on the front tbh. GAZ said that their coilover kit which I have could go 60 or more mm lower but in real life if I tried to go 60 mm lower the car would be standing on the bump stops on the front...

I was mostly referring to what happens to the angle of the lower arms and the driveshafts if lowered that much. things like the roll center will be all over the place but maybe this stuff is not that important if not hammering it about in the corners or doin' track days Been searching a little...

even for a non sport 60 mm is huge imo

by this photo they seem e little fragile http://www.wheelsjamaica.com/wheels_forum/index.php?topic=148795.50 Get the federals if they cost about the same

the back is 25-30 mm lower at the most, that's not 60 mm lower! That being said why would you want it 60 mm lower? it's hugely low and it will ride and handle like crap! Mine for example is about 25-30mm lower in the front (measured not assumed) and even by this small amount I get occasional...

there's a engine bay temperature test on the homepage made by a member here which shows that the coolest location for a open air filter is behind the passenger headlight like the K-tec induction setup. You may as well do a similar setup by yourself, a 70mm alloy 90 degree pipe and a cone open...

than the kit's worth every penny :D

well if I was to get myself a present I would definitely go for the linkage. It's winter so you'll never notice the mounts and the brace(unless your mounts are totally knackered), but you'll for sure see the benefits of the linkage! C'mon, every CS owner wants a more precise gearshift right?

How come your mpg's dropped down? this doesn't make any sense!

I asked you to take one because I also have some rubbing issues on the front. Unfortunatelly in my case the grinder is the only solution..

be sure to have a buddy to help you and the original renault tools before attempting this. there's also a thread in the sticky area of this section which I recommend reading first I see that you're a paid member, there's a guide in the specific section but do read other threads also because some...

dephaser question: with the cam belt removed when rotating the dephaser pulley by hand left-right it moves slightly in both directions, maybe 2mm(or less) in each direction or so. seen this happen when I did my cambelt change last week. Is it on it's way out or that's normal? I intend a cam...

it would be advisable to use foam filter oil if you have a foam filter. I had a ITG panel filter and used some motorex foam filter oil on it and now I have a BMC which is cotton and BMC cotton filter oil for it and I've seen that the foam oil is stickier compared to the cotton one.

I just did the cambelt job few days ago, at a friends garage, but unfortunatelly we only had the horse-shoe cam tool and the crank locking pin. But the cam tool slotted in at the end of the job so it should be close to perfection. Couldn't tell the difference if the car pulls better after the...

can you post a pic of where the tyre is rubbing?

any vids of this setup?

The Fatty- what IK setup do you have? I'm having about the same mods as you but mine came well lower on RR. Might be just the dyno reading low but still.. we're talking 30+bhp

Ok so I suffer from the same thing (mine has a milltek but size wise it's about the same) but: I'm having full upgraded engine mounts including dog bone so nothing moves.. Also the rear exhaust mounts are loaded with black silicone and they're stiff as hell My opinion is that the way the...
