Just been looking around and found there's two heights 55/40mm sport kit and 35/35mm comfort kit on the H&R. Which one did you go for?

55mm kit.

55mm kit.

Damn that's ruined that thought.

Plenty of us running coilovers, Im running Weitec Hicon Gt coilovers, Zeb has just bought H&R Coilovers, Si is running FK street coilovers and I think John is running AP coilovers. Plenty of choice for coilovers for the mkII octy. Just depends on your budget.  

 

If you have any questions about the coilovers we all run just message us I am sure we will be happy to help

 

Cheers dude... will have to wait until after house is bought and everything sorted... plus need to put in some overtime!

I'm in utter suspense waiting for some pictures!

Love the rims btw.

I think the springs have settled a little more... Still needs another good inch off the height tho! Will get some new pics soon.

On another note... My DAB stereo should be coming today!!

[VrsStebuzz]

Was just coming on here to ask if it had settled any more. But you've already answered that... Pop a picture up when you get chance

[dohboy78]

Out of curiosity I have checked the H&R part number.. I've been sent the wrong kit! It comes up as the 35mm kit?! HR-40261-2. Not happy as they are on the car now!!

[dohboy78]

So... What to do?? Think I'm going to save for a coilover kit. But will have a word with the Company who I bought the kit off, see if I can get a discount or something.

[VrsStebuzz]

Where did you order from? I'd be seeking some discount/refund. I know the kits are the same price but that's not what you ordered.

[dohboy78]

From a sponsor on here... Not going to name until I have spoken to them.

[Guest]

I'm sure who ever the sponsor is they will sort something out for you.

Thought I recognised the user name. Remember following your epic Mondeo build thread on STOC. Nice to see someone else making the move across!

Good looking car mate!

Thanks dude. Was a sad day seeing the mondeo go! But needs must.

Happy with the Octavia so far. Handles nice and pulls well. Needs to be lower than it is tho...

[dohboy78]

Coilovers ordered... New top mounts being sorted.

[Zuhayb]

Which ones?

[dohboy78]

Apex RDX dude! Good reviews... Right price.

[Zuhayb]

Perfect Look forward to them pics, how low will they go? 

[dohboy78]

Up to 80mm!!!

[Zuhayb]

 That's super low! Is that how will you go or going to wait and see? 

[dohboy78]

Yeah... Not going that low. Will probably start at 40mm and see how I go. Going to make sure the car sits level!

 I think John is running AP coilovers.

 

H&R Monotubes here Keechy

[dohboy78]

Guess what finally arrived from Germany....

Just hope the quality of the Apex product is better than the quality of their customer service and packing skills.

[dohboy78]

Kerbed a wheel today... :( not happy.

[dohboy78]

Couple of updates.... Finally fitted my DAB head unit...

Just need to figure out the aerial wiring.

Also re sprayed and fitted my black grill surround...

Apex kit should be fitted soon.
