Is there any problems fitting these shorter springs to standard shocks ?

no problems at all, i fitted them to the hillclimb atmo, really changes the handling, flatter cornering more netural in corners :)

i have just sold a set to Liam, so he will also be able to confirm what his car drives like after i have fitted them for him :wink:

40mm drop

You will need to have all the camber and tracking resorted to see any benefit in handling terms, such a drop makes a mess of all the steering angles etc

lowered the turbo, as a few of you saw when i was over, on to it's knees!!!

rechecked 4 wheel alignment, did not have to adjust anything, and it drives perfect.

very happy. :lol:
