coilovers ?

I meant, it's a dick-thing as in, I 'as got a dick ,not,you is a dick ,IYSWIM.
Not angry , just expressing an opinion ,without the IMHO suffix .

I don't see the point in putting coilovers on a road car Sorry Dave
Unless you're the sort of person that will set them up for all journeys .

M25 SETTING Tesco Setting Speed bump .......Sunday twisty countryside ,ohh feck Stuck behind Mr Tucker the silly old F###er overtaking setting ........................................

You will spend more time adjusting the buggers than driving the car

Peter ,do you change the settings or set and forget once it feels good

I see your point but I don't take my car to Tesco's! When I get my car back I hope to get a set up that is great around country lanes with decent ride comfort, lower than standard ride height and the facility to wind the shocks on a bit stiffer for the odd track day.

is dat tunin speak for me needs a set o dem blingin shox init

Bolt on dat bling guy

I think you need to see a counsellor about your bling obsession Andy!!!

you think so Peter?

I'll speak to my dad...... he's a councellor

PS .I wouldn't advise offroading in a GTA

Why not?

Just raise the suspension a little and you'll be fine

That one rare beast






PS . PS BS

looks like a cut n shut job, with 5 studs on the front too.

Lee....buy the lovely coilover set ( ) raise it 3 inches and off you go!!! The thought has crossed my mind....imagine how entertaining it would be for all the Subaru Evo and Escort people...hilarious!!

As for that buggy.....It will only be a mock up I'm sure! If its JM Schlesser then he has done this with loads of iconic French cars on the Paris Dakar....his most famous one was probably the 2cv he did.....it contained no 2cv but did look a bit like one!

Its a real car. 3.6L biturbo, but just a spaceframe in Alpine clothes..

Sorry to dissapoint you mate but they aint no blingin addon..... them is standard equip on race spidas

but it is slammmed to de max init

bling it on

Yes, but why have you got two race spidas you poser ?

Bling my man!

I haven't missed the point ,you're not the average GTA driver. I said ,I don't see the point of it for normal road use .I defy most on here to know when the car is well set-up, fully balanced and ready to take on the best the land o-the-rising sun has to offer .
It's a dick-thing ,fully adjustable, coil over ,anodised ,fine pitch thread , asp ......................I haven't got a clue how to set it properly .

..Says the guy that constantly moans that his front wheels are wearing away his arches.

If you didnt have a fixed height spring and had coilovers then you could adjust that...

And you say no one knows whats the best setup, well how are you ever going to find out if you don't have the facility to experiment..?

As with the point with the EQ, if you didnt have it, youd never know if your tweeters could sound better with a bit of top end lift - but even if its worse, least you can put it back and know that at least you have tried it..

I don't know which is the best hand to wipe my asp with, but I have experimented with both..

That is true But I think that's down to the dodgy Azev offset's .
I hope that's the end of your asp experimenting
There are things I can live without knowing ,one of which is Batty-boys

You are kidding yourself if you think you're an ace suspension guru when all you can do is twist a big spanner and get all the heights the same .it's a tad more complicated than that .

Really?

How about you get a tape measure and measure from the top of the strut body to where you have set the platform, and do the same on the other side?
