Coilover prob solved - lowered at last on KW v1's :D

Featured Replies

After the initial prob with the strange sound coming from the front. They were only making the noise because they were all compressed up. Well I had a day off yesterday so lowered the fronts down which brought the back down a fair bit too. Dont think theres need to take out the rear adjusters. As getting the fronts down to match would make it undrivable on the rounds around me. I have a work run ahead of me in half hour so will test if this ride height is suitable. fingers crossed as I dont want to raise it... piccys below not the best as a mate done the pics my excuse anyway :) and a camera phone pic :)

Big thanks to Sarah @ Awesome for the help

That looks spot on. :)

Very nice.

Wheels could do with a matt finish though...much more stealthy. :D

Hi

That does look good , I do myself like the look of the black wheels on silver cars , especially Fabia`s

Nice one and glad I could be of help ;)

The backs are all the way down and the fronts are 8 turns from the bottom, its fine on the bigger speed bumps the red ones around here they are the square ones. But the long thin ones are a no no as i found out today i gave my splitter a nudge, also ncp car parks are a no no :mad: i took it slow and nose planted driving down the ramp... do u go backwards and scrap the splitter more or forwards and scrap it :D Also managed to slide on the sump guard on a country lane my usual shortcut to beat the traffic thats a no aswell now :) But on the plus side roundabouts are great theres just so much more grip there :D next will be a RARB and bigger brakes and eventually a remap.
