Yes lowered already, and yes it's on the road. I'm in two minds about selling it tbh. I needed the money for a van, but i have abit saved away so i'll fund it through savings not through the sale of the car. However i'm extremely tempted by a Volvo C70 T5 Coupe!!! They really really appeal. How long did it take you to lower your 6? I have coilovers fitted to the front so it's a simple case of winding them to the desired height, the beam could be tricky. What method did you use when you lowered the beam? Click or measurments. There appears to be much debate about how a beam should be lowered correctly. |

There appears to be much debate about how a beam should be lowered correctly. took me about 2hours mate. i dont no how people lower them by the click basicley pull out the ARB, then remove tortion bar, jack the axle arm up, measure it and fit the tortion bar. repeat for the other side and hey presto, lowered rear beam. no clicks involved has your coilovers been well oiled? my mates sizes with all the salt fru the winter and was a right nightmare to sort out chrisd306 wrote: Think ive just bought morrettes, what to sell the cystals or the masks, lol none for sale chris, just teasing mate, you fixing that wing before knockhill?? sell my your masks no i wont have the wing done by knockhill mate. aint hurd back off the lad who has one for sale ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

60mm on the front and around 85mm-90mm on the rear, there was a 5mm difference on both sides at the rear when it was standard, but after lowering it i have managed to reduced that to only 1mm difference. handles well, but of a bumpy ride but am use to it gmax dampers to go on the rear at the end of the month.next plan is to fully rebuild my rear beam in september with solid rear beam mounts and a 21mm torsion bars and Hybrid ARB (28.5mm on the Near Side and 25.4mm on the Off Side) ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Cant wait to hear if it passed the MOT, fingers crossed for you. You'll have to have a run over here if it does and show me what i'm missing. ________________________________________ mechanical_repairs wrote: i feel like giving her a good dry bumming session. |

My mate works at SMC in Stanley, it tends to be more Audi's & VW's but he's a tester too so i could get him to take a look if you want? When you had the rear brakes done did you get a new bleed nipple in the offside? It needed one, sealed up ok but was rounded to f*ck. ________________________________________ mechanical_repairs wrote: i feel like giving her a good dry bumming session. |
