[gsums]

Well, after Four months (approx) of having my springs on my car i decided the back needed to go lower :rasp: As you can probably tell it is silly low but wot does everyone think? let me know if you can guess what has gone wrong aswell because this was NOT!! meant lol, D_mason & brembo keep hush because you know whats happened!

Only had my phone camera so not the best pics!
Let the guessing games begin lol

 

[Phill90]

Low as FOOOOOOOOOK though

[StevenMc29]

Can you tell us now?

I want to go to bed lol

 

[Hutchie]

one of your springs dont work no more as passenger side lower than driverside this makes me think its only failure on one side

 

[gsums]

springs snapped/fell out?

Well done matey lol, but only the passenger side :S. My exhaust is making a rattle at the catylic converter and my freind jacked her up to have a look not knowing that when he put it down again my spring had slipped to an angle and a day of driving the spring fell out 20 min job to put it right again.He has a jap car and when he looked at it thought my strut had snapped but then realised the strut is intfront of the spring and not in the middle.
was a VERY rough drive everywhere the smoothest road and i was hitting my head of the roof just about made myself a sunroof

 

[D-mason]

Chavs got done last weekend up the town by the Police's on-the-spot MOT unit.
Just drove up to where all the "boy/girl racers" hang out and had a field day.

Bora's, Astra's & Toledo's with no/cut springs - some weren't even allowed to drive home lol

[Leeshez]

once a bloody week, and i only work 3 miles from home, go figure, blasting to work when car still in cold start map is bad for fuel consumption

and my car will be on coilovers asap
andone recomend a stiff rear setup (extra weight an all)

cheers hutchie
