[newapps4@hotmail.com]

[chewitt]

just a black rubber thing. dont fink it would make alot of difference but some1 said to take them out. ahh well, we'll c over the next few days.

 

[Struggler]

not sure what the hells going on this those springs,

min are apex60mm springs from ktec,

it sits lower than the first picture, but its on 17s so it might just look that way

looks nothing like that silver ph2!!!

 

[AlexG]

That silver one looks lowered about 90mm lol.

Did you do the shocks back up?:clown:

 

[Sheila’s’ Wheels’]

You forgot to wash the bottom half of your car mate....

 

[chewitt]

lol i must have missed a bit, nevermind!

 

[clioandy105]

looking at both of them has confused me now as to which springs to get.Have you both put eveyrthing back in propeyl, as the black one looks like 40mm and the silver looks like 90mm as said

 

[Willy]

you have 15" alloys too, that probs make it look a bit higher

 

[chewitt]

everything is bk in as it came out.. does any1 know if it wil drop a bit more as these are brand new and only fitted today? if so.. roughly how much..

 

[Greeny.]

that silver clio looks lower than 60mm tbh

 

[Alastair.]

maybe you brought highering springs??/ jokes, car looks good!

 

[Jordi17]

doesnt even look 40mm tbh

 

[rossco111]

Dude they def aint 60mm i would have a word with ktec, i live around 2mins from there and ive seen a few round my way with 60mm springs and they look like the silver one.

Hope you get it sorted mate. Car will look ace when its slammed tho!

 

[chewitt]

cheers for that mate, i will def be calling them!

 

[clioandy105]

you sure you boguth the 60mm ones not the 35mm ones by mistake? could easily of been done!

 

[Struggler]

did u put the bump stops back in? and has yours got lower now thay have been on for a little while now?

can you do this??
surely it makes it clunk like mad??

and does it make a difference to the hight??

 

[kie1an]

lol at the silver one , looks like its on coilovers .

 

[Martin_172]

taking bump stops out wont do anything but f**k your dampers as they act as dust covers to stop dirt n s**t getting in and plus the dampers go lower than they should causing them to bottom out and bursting the seals

 

[JCC]

There's no way in hell either of them are 60mm.

 

[chewitt]

i ordered 60mm springs, have emailed ktec and just got to wait for there reply! i just said that theres no way the springs i have are 60mm and sent them pics.

i think they mean the bits of rubber that sit above and below the spring

 

[alex-avfc]

Regardless, car looks good I like where you;re going with it

 

[chewitt]

cheers alex. And for those that are interested, i have spoken to ktec, i got the part no.s from the springs and it turns out that the rears are 40mm, just got to wait for ktec to confirm, then i should think they will send me some 60mm rears instead
