Cheers for the shop, got plenty ive done myself... recently did one with some 9Jx14 deep dish Steffan BCW alloys on. Looks mint as fook but annoying to fit :dapprove:
The suspension is Gaz Adjustable Shocks with -35mm 16v Springs
Anyway as it was a nice day i thought i might aswell get it lowered. So started and removed the front wheels...
Old Standard Struts/Springs
Got the bolts undone, and undid the spring and removed the top mount with the spring compressors
New 35mm 16v Springs which should lower my car 55mm
All fitted back up tightly and in place, struts are Gaz Adjustable ones.
Same thing on the passenger side, the old stuff removed and new stuff on, its a good job the new stuff arrived as when i was compressing the spring the old one snapped
Also the passenger side was more of a pain, the strut sat a bit lower than the joint which meant a lot of swearing but eventually sorted.
Start the rear, thought i can get the shocks on and possibly get the torsion bar done.
Old stuff, with really tight bolts which took ages to remove but minutes to refit.
New stuff (pics blurry as it was dusk and i thought it would be ok but not enough light)
Adjustable screws, should be able to adjust the damping without even removing the road wheels
My efforts are rewarded for the current lowness at the front...
Looks slightly high as the rear is on Axle stands and it has to settle down...
More to follow 2morro as ive still got to remove the torsion bar and lower that. I have to remove the skirts on my RSi as they get in the way
