0-60mm in 75min. Easiest car ive ever lowered.

good job i changed them at thi stage as one spring had already snapped:

comparisons:

now we have the outcome

 

[laberridge]

proof spring compressors are a waste of money

 

[Hawk182]

75mins that pretty good going. i love how you've totaly transformed this car it looks really well.

 

[Alastair.]

Sort out the arch liners, people always leave this part, makes it look a mess.

 

[VeinAST]

I hate white cars that look 12 shades of white!! Definitely needs alot of work before it's a proper rep.

To say ive done it myself its not all that bad. plus the exterior door trims are carbon so its not ment to be the same colour.

 

[NFox]

Wow you have done a fantastic job with this, not normally a fan of ph1's but this looks great

[twiztid]

Looks brilliant mate!

 

[laberridge]

Really the need to quote all the pics again -_-

just bought a 172 spoiler so thats gonna be added in in black or white cant decide?

 

[seltking]

are the side strips wrapped? on the last pic they look like they have wrinkles all over? other than that lookin like a nice build mate

 

[Knuckles]

It's carbon fibre vinyl

 

[swaynie]

Paint the spoiler black and the roof or black carbon wrap

 

[laberridge]

Paint the spoiler black and the roof or black carbon wrap

think gloss black vinyl wrap, roof and spoiler its gonna be

 

[Jimmyrallye]

Looks a epic build knowing your done all the work your self .. What size wheels you got on there at the mo?? Looks more like a 40mm drop

there 195/50/R15. Yeah I was thinking it was more a 60mm on back but 50mm on front.

 

[laberridge]

Not bad for £13.24 just got to decide on the colour.

 

[laberridge]

decided to carbon wrap it to see how that looks, if not its gonna get sprayed gloss black.

 

[laberridge]

Spoiler now fitted to the car. Looks far better than before.

 

[Knuckles]

awesome carbon wrap the roof! :rasp:

 

[Mister_Lee]

^This! And glad the springs went to a good home! Cant believe you fitted them in the same day!

 

[laberridge]

awesome carbon wrap the roof! :rasp:

Yeah thats what ive been thinking, although cant decide whether to spray spoiler gloss black n wrap the roof in gloos too.

^This! And glad the springs went to a good home! Cant believe you fitted them in the same day!

Haha, well had a couple hours spare so we got straight down to it

 

[laberridge]

okay so finally got round to changing the alloys as growing out of mine.

Bought a set of these with new toyo proxy tyres on, (generic pic) thinking of spraying the silver lip in white and keeping rest on black:

 

[laberridge]

Water pump went on the car, so pump was swapped and cambelt and tensioner changed whilst doing so. Glad i came round to it, cambelt was shredded! Also found the power steering pump is on its way out

[Ben Herman]

I was thinking that, the carbon just looks to flat and browny in the light, gonna wrap roof and spoiler in gloos black i think.
