That's the thing, I dunno how much. Posted in the suspension section asking about a few things because I hear non sports are a fecker to lower as they don't drop by stated amount. So hoping for some feedback but none as of yet.
Whens the coilovers coming? Which 15" yiu going for?
The FKs are coming soon, tomorrow I reckon; early next week at the latest. I'm refurbing the BKs shown in my project thread, they're 15" and will be painted white, hopefully they'll suit the car really well when she is decked. Plus they're on lower profile tyres so the car could go even lower.
Basically, non-sports will drop 40mm comfortably. Then if you want to drop any more you need to modify something to allow for clearance (I think it is removing the rear mud guards because they'll rub against the rear wheels), then you can drop to 60mm. But the ride is meant to be quite harsh at 60mm, so I recommend 40mm for just springs. Plus the Eibach Sportlines will only lower by up to 40mm I think, and those are meant to be the good ones.
By the way, a halfords guy told me that stuff about the rear mud guards, I'm not sure if it's correct since he seemed quite edgy himself!
