Clio V6, KW coilovers and H&R spacers....

[ColinG]

So yeah... I'll let the pics do the talking, not sure I can keep it at this height but it looks EPIC!!! need it booked in for a full geo but from my initial rain soaked drive home it drives like a different car, so flat and so sure footed! I absolutely love it!

Better pics to come when it's clean and it's actually not pouring down

 

[Mr R.]

Looks fcuking amazing.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Oh my

 

[Fletcher]

Looking good.

 

[MarkX]

Awesome, needs up a little at the rear IMO though to give it a bit of rake

 

[dmallett]

I thought i would hate it that low but that looks properly awesome! Love it

It's actually got rake at the moment by a fair bit, must be the pictures. The front is Definately bordering on too low in a practical sense.. However it's not the bodywork that's the problem at this height, it's the under trays catching, and that's no bueno cause you can't buy them anymore afaik.

Without spacers it can look a little odd being low, I've got 15's on the rear and 5 up front but could probably get away with 15 all round, it's said to cause tram lining though which isn't good.

 

[Knuckles]

Too many lows at the front and slightly too much at the rear... Imo.


Otherwise, it looks ace.



Moar pics/info of the GTR thankyouplease.

 

[adamlstr]

Looks amazing Colin, but as @Knuckles says - more info on the Datsun if you've purchased..

 

[ColinG]

GTR is my mates who fitted the coil overs, he's got his own garage, also has a 182 and a Supercharged 106gti with about 350hp lol, GTR is a MY12 and is biblically fast. Only done about 9000 miles from new!

 

[Stefan.]

Doesnt look right imo

Front looks to tucked in the arches

Little to low on the front too imo

But still a cracking car

.

 

[david hodson]

Looks like it has a fair bit of camber at the rear now

 

[Stay Puft]

Gorgeous, but that R35...

 

[Gus]

I always think it looks best when the arch gap is the same all the way round. Think 15mm up front and back would look best imo. Are you getting any scrubbing on full lock especially round tight bends at speed.

Looks amazing though and massively better than standard.

 

[Iain C]

up a taj at the front id say. Looks awseome tho. Is tat a gtr too?

 

[ColinG]

Got it all washed and cleaned up again this morning and tomorrow I'm gonna raise up the fronts 5mm and see what that looks like. Good thing about the front end is you can do it with the wheels on lol.

Actually pretty happy with the rear height, amazing how the car looks so much more squat and purposeful though!

No scrubbing at full lock at any speeds you can actually do full lock at (i.e under 10mph)...

 

[Slammed172]

Looks good tbh. 5mm raise wouldn't hurt though.

That was meant to be this mornings job but I'll have to do it later as I can't get the jack under the car now so need to get some bits of wood :laughing:

 

[Pep]

That looks epic mate!

 

[cat171]

I think it looks stupid, get cracking with the raise.

 

[ColinG]

Raised it 5mm at the front

This is the final height id say, there's 102mm of front bunper clearance at that.

 

[ColinG]

 

[Jekyll]

I still think the rear needs to come up just a tad more, front is perfect

Still an amazing car!

 

[Stefan.]

The wheels look really tucked in now its lower

Looks better than the first pics though

 

[ColinG]

Think it's just the pics mate as when you see it in person the wheels are fairly flush to the arches...
Also remember the camber etc will likely be miles out until the geo is done.

 

[jim cook]

Want One !!!!!!!!!

 

[BREMBO]

Fek thats low lol - does look the part! bit dub scene though

 

[Sir_Dave]

Looks nice, but surely now its slammed, when the grip does eventually go, it'll be even more likely to end up in a hedge, backwards, on fire?

Lol, well.., possibly! I'm a farmer not a suspension expert, but hopefully the KW's allow a lower height whilst still retaining plenty of travel for our shocking roads so should absorb any mid corner bumps without too much trouble.

Believe it or not the car is only 22mm front and 30mm rear lower than standard.

 

[ColinG]

Couple more... Still can't decide if I'm wise keeping it this height!

Looks epic and for 1000ish miles per year I'm sure I can manage!

 

[Jekyll]

Does look f*cking ace tbh!!

 

[Knuckles]

Looks unreal.

May be a smidge low at the front if I'm picking. But it looks ace still!

 

[Djw John]

Looks f**king awesome at the latest height.

Does need italicised number plates though.

 

[Stefan.]

Ok fair play new pics make it look f**king awesome

Touche

 

[cat171]

It looks miles better in those pics.

 

[Brookie.]

So good!

 

[PoppinCherries]

I need a v6...
