how long does it take 4 springs to drop

[mr sheep]

mine have been on a week and the front defo looks lower but the back im not sure about looks like its only moved 20mm, no-one has sat in back yet so theres been no weight on them is that why??

35mm p.i springs by the way

 

[mr sheep]

Ask Tomclio182, Daipac or Boyracer666 as I did theirs and it took a while.

is it just a simple spring swop to lower the rear of a 16v

Mine have taken about 5 days so far and I think they are just settled in nicely now..

no, they dont have springs.........torsion bar at the rear

thats what i was told but i was hoping it wernt true, does it cost ££££ to do

 

[Daipac]

Yeah I would say it was a few days to drop and then a week or so for them to bed in. Mine are settling very nicely and they were fitted around a week and a half ago now. They were only a 10m drop Eibach Pro Kit though so the drop was less noticeable.

id say mines after a year are sittin much lower even after having them fitted for a month so id say they just keep dropping till a good month or 2 or a good few k miles

on a 1600 dynamique by the way, seems to have gone ok at the front but not the back, should have gone for the 60mm ones now, doh
