Lowered the 182 this evening

[DazG]

Baggins the legend lowered my car this evening!

Daveliquid182, Jacko cup 172 and Dennis V6 also dropped by to say hello!

1st he decked it too see what it looks like, here the results:

Couldn't back it out of the driveway it was so low!

So Baggins ended up raising it 20mm at the front and 10mm at the rear! By
this time it was dark so I couldn't take any pics of the finished article :approve:

Shall give it a clean on the weekend then do another post

H&R coilovers

When it was "decked" tried getting it off my driveway and the exhaust caught
the contrete! Had to raise it front and rear! Took it for a quick spin
around my town, full of speed bumps, and it was fine!

lol...Mine was mega low at the front. Because the FK rear spring was too short we had to have the front lowered to a silly level to get the handling and cornerweights right.

Mine on std 172 rims! had to raise it about 20mm at the front when the turini's went bak on
