Interesting. What I really need to know is what do I tell the custom spring guy I want? I want it 20mm lower and I want it to feel standard. So Eibach you say... I'm listening! :o

I was really hoping you'd pop by Fred. Eibach were the people who told us about the agreement set up not to produce lowering springs for the car. So bit of a dead end! After reading up am I right in saying if I want to go say 20mm lower I want stiffer springs?

I actually knew that I worded it rather wrong.

Yes, yes you're right headlights and fog lamps are exactly the same. I see we haven't introduced the IQ test yet!

Thanks for that mate, makes sense. So you'd say there is now way they can replicate the standard springs and lower the car (slightly) without it being detrimental? It'll never be tracked or probably pushed over 90% on the road. It's more from a looks pov as it may have OE press spacers fitted...

I'm happy with everything on my car handling wise I just want it to be a ballhair lower so disturbing the least amount of the car = springs. :) If I wanted adjustables they would have to be specially built for my car.

Oh dear! It was going so well!

Hero wheels!

The seats in the FRS are like a bus compared with the Frp seats. I can't see whats not to like. Proper seats. That Aston is OMG! I was just asking as i've seen a few wrapped with le mans and Gumball recently. That pircture is perfect though!

Awesome guys! Can someone do a left to right of the ferry lounge pictures so I know who the f**k is who apart from the ginger gay Mclaren dude.

Standard FTW! ;)

Lols. That's a very expensive spoiler from the s1600 rallye cars. F2 it's called iirc. I like the flat shape at the back. Was the Aston Standard Laura?

Was it the handlebar one or the little one with 2 centre struts on the boot?

I do like the new TT's. They need a little spec though the base model looks poor compared with the lovely mk1 shape.

Seriously? Yellow? You're bored and you want to mod am I right? Stick with Silver, you'll look like you're trying hard if you paint them and it'll turn the car towards the chavy side. The car looks immense on Silver wheels mate. Spend money elsewhere on the car. Get some 172cup badges for...

I know 2 of the owners mate, they met up with the other 2 guys on the way over.

Was it an expensive A3 that was burnt out? British guys? Great pics! I'd have my house in Gulf colours if I could!

Haha! a TT wouldn't see which way the Frp went on a B road!

Indeed there was meant to be 1000. 500 for Britain and 500 for germany but the TT had just been released and the puma was £23,000. No German was ever really going to want one over a TT. So 500 only made for Britain. Anymore help on what I can request from the springcoil place as too what...

f**k! I love Bayside and no i'm not talking about Saved by the Bell.

Blame Stig Blomqvist he had a hand in it! Help me!

Superb mate, any other advice that you can give?

Grand mate. Where did he have them done? The springs from the above mentioned company are around 30-35 quid a spring. Pretty cheap. The FRP has bespoke suspension mate, thats it's party piece. (have a read up on it) Of course changing the springs is a crazy idea on a car famed for it's...

No mate they signed a contract (read agreed) not to make lowering springs for the car. As you know they make lowering springs for nearly all ford models as a factory option so they would have done for the Frp. So progressive springs you say! I'm learning already. I guess there is a lot of...

So just the back ones are tinted then?

4. The fact the one in the video has a meaty exhaust aswell and I assume the NWP has a fancy exhaust will change the note no matter how much you try and listen to the engine only.

Springs will be stripped today and packed off for testing. Looking forward to see what happens. Can anyone with an ounce of suspension knowledge tell me what I want in suspension terms. If I want the exact same spring, hardness, rate, rebound but a tad lower (shorter)? I have little idea but...

It sounds souless though. I think the F4R is similar no really grunt/noise/sound from it.

Lols! I'll ridicule the inside of your lights at CSS then. :o
