rite as some may know, may car seems to sit quite high

i bought some brand new konis n springs off a fella who changed his mind n decided he wanted coil overs on his RST,

he told me that the kit i bought off him lowered my RST by -25mm

well fitted it n it seemed high

heres some pics













after a few people told me that its not lowered by -25mm i decided to buy some new springs

bought some -25/30mm avo springs from PJ motorsport, just had them fitted this morning, the lads at the garage say its sitting at the same height still!

whats going on????

You like the off road 4x4 look dont you Dave

The springs need to be driven to settle down mate, they are always high at first, the first ones you had will be fine aswell i expect.

White RS1600i

Your rear right wheel looks dangerous mate some funky positive camber going on

Anyway that looks about right for 25mm

JamboRS

should settle a bit mate
heres mine when i changed my springs



and here it is a couple of days later

Cawood

love that car jambo! well nice

u can actually see the difference on yours cant ya, hope mine settles then

whiters1600 - do ya think? it dont wesr the tyres down unevenly or owt

SafeChav

Have it checked mate. Personally i think its just the angle the picture is taken at.

Car isnt exactly on even ground either mate so that will make a slight difference whichever way you look at it

rs shawn

Springs will deffo settle as they have been un-sprung since manufacture. Now they have some weight on they will drop. Also, if your old springs were knackered, they will sag and make the car lower automatically due ot this.

Cawood

thanks lads, dint think there was a prob with the rear wheels, looks ok to me as you say think its just the pic

went back to me car last nite and the front end has dropped now, the rear still looks jacked up tho

think i'll have to get a fat mate to stick in the back or some massive subs! lol

T28 RST

Get the grinder out and chop a few coils off

SafeChav

What the hell just take the rear springs out, it will sit on the bump stops then

Just drive the car it will soon drop as the bumps settle the springs in

T28 RST

Dont say that

Cawoods that foolish that he would try it

Cawood

bugger, too late already done it! lower as fook now tho lol
