  1. I'm always super paranoid about it, so Many jealous, filthy people living by me... If I'm leaving it somewhere it either has to be directly under a camera or in sight from where I am :/ but everything is within walking distance of my house so going to town isn't too bad. pain in the bum when it comes to parking elsewhere but it seems to work ... Takes ages to find a space lol

  2. Yes you should have them mate. People normally take them out to go lower than the lowest setting on the front.

    Oh :( I had them new so I don't know why I didn't have them and the seller had good ratings on ebay but I can't remember who it was :/

    so having this would make it stiffer?

    That's probably why my arches scrape on the tyre over bumps at speed ;(

    Any ideas where I could source these from?

  3. As per title, I have a set of pro sport coilovers which I purchased about 10 months ago... A mate of mine recently bought the same ones for the Same price... I noticed his car was alot stiffer so had a look and he's got mini springs underneath the large ones on the front, I believe they are called helper springs, should i have these? Also cannot find a number on the web to contact pro sport :/ thanks in advance. Jack

  4. There's a funny shaped bit that you'll need for the fronts, it's like a star shap ( sorry I don't know the name if it) it's around the back if the hub. jack up the car equslly, and when doing them it will be handy to have the jack free to lift the struts/ rear beam into place to bolt easier :) also make sure each side is measured properly when adjusting height... good luck mate

  5. Eibach springs were spot on when i had them on my old furby

    Ive gone weitec springs atm, more solid and tbh look abit better drop than the eibachs. I was in same boat as you. Looks are not important if you cant drive the car anywhere :')

    Were you on standard shocks?

  6. Rolling radius will change, so could potentially throw speedo out a little (use http://www.etyres.co.uk/tyre-size-calculator.htm).

    It'll handle better in wet & snow, but other than that, as you're retaining the same profile size, there will be less rubber between you & road, so may feel a little 'crashy'. Try it & find out innit =) I went up a profile on mine, (to 205,50,16) and it made the world of difference to the feel of the car.

    Thanks, that will come in handy mate

  7. Pritty sure as car goes limo mode at times and tells me its turbo under boost and it cant b the turbo as its shiny new :)

    I had a revo generic map, I was told mine was faulty do put a mates one on and it blew, bought a new one and a new turbo out it all togeather and blew another lne within 3 days, but I'm thinking it may have been a faulty turbo and the supplier is covering sumin up! Lol :@
