IN THIER OPINION ffs people get fecked off just because it doesnt handle as well as it did, lol! its like well who gives a shit, it looks the dogs bollocks anyway and you never need to drive it fast enough that the loss in handling matters. so who cares??? Mikeys pic looks awesome mate. And yeah mine loves a creak and a nice deafening bang on potholes that is sooo butt clenching on a weekly basis but they still keep going. Love it. :y: |
my car is lowerd 100m on the back handles like a dream. Also looks perfect. ;)
|
Well my shocks on the front are foobarred now lol. After 2 years of being at 60mm and all their previous use, they've finally died! So i've got to fix that this week. Just had a new rear tyre too and axle gets fixed a week on Saturday and its being raised a notch too.
I'll keep you all updated. |
what you gonna go for mate?
|
I rekon it looks mint that low, the stance is sweet as.:fcuk:
But if it is causing you and the car problems , then 60mm allround would still looks sweet as:y: |
Its not problems for the car as such. Just i think it may cause problems if it stays like it. Putting new standard shocks on as they've lasted 2 years and they werent brand new when i lowered it, so they've done well. Also considering buying a VTS?
|
So standard shocks and custom springs? any in particular? im doing mine soon so would be interested to know what you are going for. Dont bother buying a vts mate, keep yours until you are sick of saxos then go for something bigger and more powerfull. Thats what i reckon anyway.
|
60mm Gmax springs and standard shocks mate. I know people call doing it like that, but as I say, at end of day they've lasted 2 years and been fine until now, plus i can change to uprated eventually if I want to anyway.
My mates really trying to talk me into 16V, i would like one as when i went out in his GTI i loved it... but it depends on cash flow etc. Plus i dont want peanuts for my car as i know once i've fixed the struts (in my boot, doing it sunday due to work & birmingham bike show on Sat) and i've sorted the axle (being done Saturday after) it's a minter. The cars polished all the time, gets any money spent on it that it needs plus more. Id be daft to let it go for nothing. |
Very nice car you got there mate.
|
any pics of your coilovers on the strut by any chance?
just wanting to have a look at them and see what the crack is with them :) car is looking good matey nice color, dont see many like that very clean and low ;) |

Car was meant to have the back axle fixed today and be raised on the back... That plan went to pot lol. So hopefully getting done soon (needs doing tbf). Also got a new project... Ducati Monster 620 (2003). Been after a bike since i passed my test not long back and i specifically wanted a V-Twin. Got a bargain so i'm very happy. May post pictures at some point. |
gotta love the ducati noise :D
me dad had a monster (with termi exhausts on) sounded the nuts |
Lol, well tbf it needs abit of work. But by the time it's done it will be mint. Having it re-sprayed, ordered Renthal bars today... Also been polishing bits up today and giving it a general tidy up. Possibly having a custom exhaust made.
Bikes are in my blood as much as cars lol. My dad owns a Ducati 800 Supersport and my Uncle owns a Ducati 1098R :O, just had a new exhaust system on it (porn). And my Auntys got her new Fireblade on order. |
cheers matey
it just to get an idea of how they work, i have a mate who is going to develop a kit for them that is alot better than certain kits available ;) |
Lol. Well im off out in a minute, but if I dont get in too late I'll upload them tonight. If not I'll try and do it tomorrow. Im helping a friend move house though, so busy day lol.
|
lol nee sweat mate.
have a good night :):drink::boxing::cool: |

Mines lowered 50mm, and it looks good. Low but not too low. It does compramise ride quality but i dont drive fast enough to be bothered about handling. |
