Unlowering my car

[DrR]

Bought my car a few weeks back and it came lowered when i bought it, and i think the ride is way to hard, i've never driven a normal one apart from a test drive, will returning it to normal make much difference?

I raised mine back up a few weeks ago and havn't looked back since. The ride height looks silly but if you can live with that then for predictable handling and an all round package you can't beat standard imo.

depending on how much its lowered and if it is just springs or a full set-up will affect how comfortable the ride is.

If its just lowering springs on normal suspension then it will improve quite a bit i would say

well this is my car at the moe http://www.putfile.com/drrollo/images/28781 and i live out in the country and think it's actually damaging the car from being so bumpy lol!

Oh and please post you pics of normal hight cars.

Unlowering it will probably help quite a bit.. my cup is on standard suspension and is perfect for B road blasting. Theres nowt worse than stiff suspension when living out in the sticks.

But will it actually handle worse or better?

looks really well though. Its like me, mines slammed down, looks mint but probably too much for where i live, and for b road thrashes... its a trade off though

it will ride the bumps better, so will handle better.

Think i'll get some springs, there not hard to swap so why not.

Oh just seen some 172 cup suspension on ebay, would that fit? and would it be slightly better than standard?

would you be interested in selling your old springs when you've got your new ones mate? pm me with a price if you are

 

[DrR]

If i remember i'll PM you, if i forget i'll post em up in the forsale part anyhow, probably won't be a good few weeks yet though.
