Is that a clio or R5? I was always intrigued by their system of torsion bars inside beam, anti roll bar outside, certainly makes lowering a lot easier!

the bit in quotes is the guide lads, thats all you need. It makes a lot more sense if you read it and then jack your car up and have a good look at the setup

I have shut my dedicated server down today so i have had to transfer the pics from my first post to a photobucket account so that everyone still has access to the guides, can someone just confirm to me if they can see the pics in the first post. cheers

does the further you pull it determine how low it goes? And do you measure the distance you pull it out to get the amount of lowering you want?

if your talking about the torsion bars themselves, u need to pull them all the way out, adjust the height, and then slide the bars back in mate
