could you not use the 1.2 springs?

there is a Dci in Sunderland near me and he has lowered his car 35mm. He has been warned that any lower and he will be going through drive shafts at a rate of knots.

His does look lower than mine at the front, but then again, he does have a diesel lump under the hood which aint light.

 

[Padso]

DId he just stick on a set of 35mm springs mean for a petrol engined car?

PI offer a lowering kit for the DCi, you cant use the 1.2 springs as the DCis are stiffer to cope with the extra weight, i got mine from Merseyspeed for £110 mine is lowered 40mm and i have had no probs and its on 18s, i have pics if ya wanna see them?

 

[Padso]

Daddy throw up some pics as i havnt seen them in ages please

 

[the daddy]

i will have to email them to you as my link is no longer in action, whats your address?

Could you mail some to me daddy? For £110 I think thats pretty good value. Is that fitted or did you do that yourself?

 

[the daddy]

Thats plus fitting, which costs about £50 depending on garage, if you want some i can get them for you if you want? If you want a pic let me know your email address?

Looks wicked, but where did you get the silver model identifiers from (the things at the front of the rubbing strips)?

Mine are just black, with dci on

I would consider it twice before lowering a dci. Ive got a lowered (by Renault) dci 80bhp and it feels like the dampers cant quite cope with the lowered springs, making the car bounce around when I drive over large bumps/potholes etc. . It looks nice though (havent got a camera to document..).
