Ive looked at the height guide before you begin.

Cant decide weather to go 40 all around or 40 front 50 back etc.

Want to see what people think has the best sitting height. I want it to be heigher at back since it looks meaner :homme:

Im on vts alloys btw.

Pictures would be sexy.

Also, is it the right way doing the torsion bar in splines?

Couldnt remember lol.

Not sure if thats too low at the back tho.

Since 60mm is quite low for my area like.

Hmm. Whats the right way to lower the tosion bar?

Whats like the smallest increasements you can do?

Is 'splines' the right way?

removing the bar is the correct way..... go 40mm front and 40 at the rear looks the best... and handlingis spot on.... are you going just springs or shocks and dampers aswell

Just springs in this case.

as a general rule of thumb with the rear being alot higher than the front on saxos you should lower the rear (torsion bars which you can set to any height if done correctly) 20mm lower than you lower the front (springs obviously)

E.G=

front 35mm rear 55mm

front 40mm rear 60mm

front 50mm rear 70mm

front 60mm rear 80mm

this makes the car "look level" so to speak, hears mine 60mm front 80mm rear=
