Mine bangs over bumps. Its lowered 40mm on rock hard bilstein shockers. Sounds bad but feck me it handles!! smileys/smiley4.gif

ive had it checked out before but no one can help,i was thinking could it be the suspension bushes that are probably worn out. nearly ordered a whole new lowering kit today(koni,spax)its been pissing me off.

Think its just cos the shocks an springs are harder than the original stuff. My old man had a c***a GSi an he had bilstein on that an it sounded the same. Sad fact is that when we mod our cars you always get nasty or annoying side effects! smileys/smiley13.gif

[Smithy]
