  1. This thing drove to where its parked: 13100860_1736491563260531_4461580010541199389_n.jpg?oh=27a13124760fa2b2e3df76192babfa28&oe=57AC57FF So the short answer is youre miles away from having any problems, you can pretty much tuck the front wheel under the arch before it will start catching on lock. Mine ran pretty low: IMAG0321_zps78a486e6.jpg but it got even lower on track: 411917_437283082970484_645082344_o.jpg and still didnt ever rub :) Ive run driftcars even lower and although chassis rails and diffs would occasionally touch Ive never had a problem with wheels on front arches. Speedbumps wont make any difference unless your planning on hitting them at 40mph as well :lol:

     

     

     

    Did it manage UK to Le Mans at this ride height too? Thought I recognized the car from my old facebook pics :)

  2. I know it's the same weekend as Japshow at Santa Pod, but is anyone planning on going? Thought I'd post this in the national events bit as it's part of Time Attack and Tunerfest South was in here too :)

     

    I'll probably be heading over from Chorley in the Zed with a mate unless there's more than two of us lol...

  3. I'm crossing all my fingers and toes, perfect timing for me as I'll be modding a spare plenum as soon as it arrives, I'm also fitting some BCs so will need it aligning etc (it's currently out after I fitted the camber arms anyway!) so two birds one stone which makes a long trip more worthwhile ðŸ‘ðŸ»

  4. Wow that is a long wait, when you said 12 weeks originally (which would have actually been this week), I could just about manage but another 9 weeks might just be too long.

     

    I really want to give these a try as I missed out on a previous MX5 group buy a while ago.

     

    How sure are you of the 9weeks figure? I wouldn't want to get to 9 weeks time and then have another date if you know what I mean 😋

     

    If it's definitely going to be around 9 weeks I can probably wait as I really don't want to back out and get something else and let's be honest it's a cracking deal, especially with the adjusters (thanks for that too btw!) it's just a looooong time to wait is all

     

    Cheers

    Thought I'd add the stragglers (myself included) to the bottom of the list... I'm also on the FB group

  6. Hi

     

    The offer closed on the 15th as per post "66".

    We are waiting for our confirmation of the shipment date. Then we will take payments from the people on the list. We estimate stock to be in about 12 weeks. Further details to follow as we get them.

    Hey fellas, any news on shipment dates? I'm struggling to get to and from my house on my current springs (bloody middle of the road speed bumps!) so I'm chomping at the bit lol

  7. Hi Edster, is the ride harsh or is it more that its harsh and springy / bouncy? Depending on mileage your dampers might be knackered after running on the shorter springs (so moving to Teins might only be marginally better as you still might not be able to dampen the spring effectively).

     

    Mine has 45k on it and the Apex springs have only been on a few k, while they are firmer they're really not that much firmer over anything but the biggest of potholes. However I test drove a car with more miles that was Eibachs and it was awful (to clarify I'm saying this was not the fault of the spring at all but the dampers had clearly gone). Just food for thought before spending more money and time on springs as they may not be the cause.

     

    I've also run both 18's and 19's on this set up and found that tyre make (as in hard / soft sidewalls) / pressure can make a huge difference, as much as the actual size change.

     

    FYI - I found I liked 34f/32r (psi) on my falkens worked nicely on the Apex springs running a 19x8.5/9.5 staggered setup but its worth experimenting for yourself.
