Not gunna play to much as she now handles mint!

 

[Limca]

rah........ nice how low is that, and how low will u be goin on the weekend

 

[_Tom]

Aint got a clue mate! lol! I'd say it was about 60ish?

The top of the wheel arch is 54cm of the ground or something?

Its going right down this weekend though. being a new toy an all!

 

[Limca]

[cat171]

Fook me thats low man !! Tom your cars lovely mate deffo one of the best on here !!!

 

[Dansta]

[_Tom]

Cheers Cat!

So you lot think it looks low now then?

 

[Rich_16v]

Looks great mate i need to take some up to date pics

Mine must be -60mm aswell but it doesn't look all that low compared to the shocks and springs setup but it has to be really

 

[_Tom]

Yeah these pics dont do the car justice although i think i may put my 15's on for a laugh this weekend.

You on coilovers now rich yeah? How close is your wheel to the bottom of the coil?

 

[Clarkie172]

on valvers, its criminal not to have some of the rear alloy under the arch! still looks nice and low tho!

 

[_Tom]

Was thinking of dropping the back a tad clarkie but dont want to screw the handling!

 

[Clarkie172]

if u want handling mate have it sat slightly higher at the back! i just wanted mine for looks! the 172 wasnt daft low due to being more for handling but my valver was just slammed! looked mint... yours does!

 

[Leeshez]

wow that looks mint

 

[lucky]

Perfect :approve:

 

[Nafoff]

nice work tom....

 

[_Tom]

Yeah clarkie thats what i mean. Got to keep the back fairly high to keep the handling and tbh it feels great like this. Proper Go-Kart stylee!

Cheers for the comments!

Booked into prospeed now for a new exhaust too..

 

[ollie_yesclio]

nice car mate! looks nice that low

know what u mean about handling, mines 100 on back and it just bounces!!! but then it looks cool. but its only a 1.2 so its not like im gonna be racing

 

[steve a]

Sweet as mate. Fitted the new top mounts as well? Which style of exhaust are u
going for?

 

[clio head]

Looks the Dogs... back also looks mint!!! is it easy to adjust em then...just tighted and losen a nut and measure???

 

[_Tom]

Yeah new top mounts fitted steve!

Not sure on the exhaust yet. The one on there had rusted through. Think i'm going to keep it subtle though mate so probs just another 3" single. Dont like big loud exhausts.....

 

[Nafoff]
