spr1ngy Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 And as i have about as much knowledge as a 7 year old school girl about how or what i need to do this i was after some help What exactly do i need? can i just purchase some lowering springs, or, do i need to get a lowing kit? or coilover kit? And how much of a dent is this going to put in my pocket? 500 quid with the labour? Any help much appreciated Quote
Zedrush Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 If you are doing for looks just get some teins or eibach lowering spring, if you are doing for performance then look at KW Variants coilovers, most go for Variant 3. If looks you are looking around 300 all in I think Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 You can lower on springs only, Eibach springs for members are £205.00 delivered. Coilovers tend to start at about £700ish... Quote
spr1ngy Posted March 31, 2009 Author Posted March 31, 2009 starting at £700 Think i'll take the £300 "just for looks" option and use the spare 500 to start saving for some Volk-GTS Quote

Zedrush Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 If you get these wheels, definatly paint your brembos red with brembo in white, looks SICK!!! Quote

Yeah was thinking the black,silver and then gold calipers might clash a touch......... So if i get my car lowered on the 18" rays on it right now, then by the 19" volk's, will the suspension need adjusting again?.. Quote
Zedrush Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 You ll need spacers as well..... Not on standard arch you can get the right offset even have it come out a notch. The springs will be fine, the profiles of the tyres will help aid the lower look on 19's. Best bet is contact Adam at Z1 auto he can advise you on this mate Quote
