Do Hillpower lower cars???

I need mine doin but every garage i take it too dont wanna know cus being an old car (93 K) they say that the torsion bar will be seized!

So id rather take it to someone who knows Clios inside out if poss, I know BBperformance and K-tec do it but its a bit to far from where i live in Birmingham. Hillpower is in Derby so not too far.

Yes they do give Nick a ring on 01530 273633

Not only will Nick Hill lower your motor m8, but hell do it using the correct geometry to get your car cornering spot on. Alot these "garages" or so called "tuners" will drop your car level on 55mm springs and thinking they have done a good job, when in fact they have just made it worse.

its proven that with the nose slightly dipped at the front (40mm- 35mm) with uprated trailing arms / coilovers on front will give you an excellent cornering ability. Just ask for a test drive in nicks clio 16v!

Yeah mines a couple of mm lower at the front end and seems to corner like its on rails!

IIRC a while back nick voiced his opinion that a lower rear has a more stable attitude. Always another angle on things, ask him what his preffered choice is.

dont remember him sayin that m8, last time i spoke to Nick about handlin im sure he said a slightly lower front was best

£249 inc VAT at Hill Power for spings and labour, just got a price list of bits through from him.

Im getting mine done at BB tuning on Saturday for £160ish though!!

 

[Tony]

£249!!!! Bloody hell, i was only hoping to pay about £150.

(im a cheapskate!)

 

[steve a]

Thats for front springs and having them fitted, as well as the back being lowered. Get a club discount as well dont forget.

 

[Tony]

Ive got my own front springs, just need em fitting and torsion lowering. Ya reckon it will be any cheaper??

 

[steve a]

Cant be sure. Just give Nick a ring and ask for a quote.

nice one
