eibach sportlines

if i fit these to a 1.2 16v am i going to experience problems if i do not use uprated shocks as well?

been told that buying an apex 40mm full kit is a bad idea as they are no good?

Hello mate i think if the drop is more than 40mm you need to get shortend dampers just fitted sportlines to my 172 cup and they are ace go for them, what to do is check how much sportlines will drop the 1.2 any more than 40mm is a bit much

I don't think you will have problems with those springs, I have em to, the only thing I can say that's a wee bit negative, is that they're HARD, but I suppose that could have something to do with the condition of the road here in Belgium.:S

dont find them any harder than he standard cup springs the pros out wiegh the cons the cornering is 100 times better i mean if my girlfreind coments on them they must be good as she has not got a clue bless

so if they lower the car by 45 mm will this cause me problems and break the shockers? as i dont want to have to pay out for them!!

i asked this question a while ago have decided to go for it but just need to save up Fred at Yozza said it would not need short shocks for the MK2 Ph2 1.2 16v if u were putting on Eibach Sportlines.

[JD]

jamie

 

[Fred@BTM]

i'd go for the apex 60mm kit

If its for a 1.2 mate, lower it 60mm. Apex
