[Spiezels]

oh ok thnk i see need lots of other bits

 

[Matt_Pleece]

can u let me know what u need as i wanna do the same cheers.

 

[Spiezels]

lol if i find out mate i will. I duno wats diff between the springs and the lowering kit which is like 5 times as much hmmmmmm

 

[Matt_Pleece]

same but i would guess that put lowering springs on standard dampers isn't gunna do either of our cars any gd might last couple of moths b4 they give-in, guess theres a reason the kit is so much more expensive

 

[djchewy]

just the springs if your gonna lower it between 30-40mm

anymore than that will damage your standard shock absorbers

real shame cos im desperate to lower mine but don't wanna kill it in the process as i don't have another £300/400 quid to fork out for a whole new kit

o ok cheers for that dat sounds alrite might give it ago any one know how hard/easy it is to fit new spring and if 30-40 mm lower will make a visual difference

so is it a bad idea to do it with just the springs yeah is it dangerous too. What u rekon for a full set then on the cheap.

Springs are absolutely fine for 30 and 40 drops, anymore and a full kit would be the best bet.
