K-tec coilovers fitted.

[Matthew]

Hi guys, finally got my coilovers from K-tec fitted the other day, at NW performance.

Have to say ime very please with them.

The ride is, probably better than in standard set up, alot less crashy over the bumps.

The front can go down alot more, but you would be in "rub-city" so thats a no go. I dont think the rears will go any lower, but hoping they settle abit more...

Anyways, here are a few picys

 

[Davis]

so much better!

looks really smart now!

 

[Matthew]

Cheers buddy!

Nice, mine dropped loads in the weeks after fitting too so it will go lower!

Did you/they modify the bumper brackets too?

 

[k-tec172]

Oh wow! Mine are on the way . . . . can't wait. Is that the alloy top mounts you have there too? I'm getting them also. And I even have the same wheels as you but in silver

Sheep City here I come!

Looking really nice mate, you got your mods just right there. Subtle mods like these are the key to a gorgeous ride like yours . . . and mine

Cheers Mike. They cut abit of the arch liner out which after a "spirited" test drive from Matt, was rubbing like mad.

Oh and I hammered that bulge in the passenger side out this morning with a huge hammer haha

[Christopher.]

[oliver.james]

Looking good!

 

[chrisazzy]

Car looks great mate.

I had mine fitted monday at Ktec & mines same height as yours & im loving it.

 

[Matthew]

Really supprised at the ride quality. Defiantly an upgrade from standard or sportlines etc.

 

[chrisazzy]

I was expecting a slightly bumpy ride home for a few hours but it was really smooth.

Well worth the money.

 

[Y7 ADW]

Awesome mate, looks exactly the same height as mine

 

[NWPerformance]

:O the garage is in a right mess there. Spirited drive lol

 

[Greeny.]

Yeah the fronts go about 5 miles lower but I have no idea why, the springs are so soft they will just rub like f**k like mine did! Im suprised your rear isnt any lower considering you have a boombox y0, looking good tho and as said they will settle!

[chrispy.clio]

Sits really nice doesnt it.

Any more plans?

 

[Matthew]

Was thinking about stipping (after being in yours mate lol) but dont think I could live with it...

Fancy getting it mapped, but not decided on RS tuner or RS tunings live map yet...

Hows your machine going?

 

[k-tec172]

I think it would ace if you went white with the badges front & rear. What d'ya think?

 

[Benj88]

Looks great

Yeah i wouldnt bother stripping it mate, i had the RS Tuner and it was a great improvement. For the gain you get its worth the money

My car is running well, bit of a dodge front right caliper but i'll fix that over the next few days, and my cage is going it today

Make sure you get some pictures up of the cage mate, will look sweet..

Yeah ime swaying more and more towards the RS tuner, purley for price reasons.

I would like the car to be abit more torquey lower down, which I think the RS tuner does??
