  • Cut my rear springs, sitting as low as I can go on the rear at the minute. Need to cut and re weld where the spring sits.

Eventually, I'd take it to a family pic of mine and introduce it to everyone. We'd date for a while until a nice G35 came around and enticed me with the leather seats and navigation that I would never even use anyway. I'd end up breaking that tegs heart and it would walk on me. THAT'S how much I love this car.

      OT: My car is currently such a state that it would be a crime to post a picture of it here just yet. Who knows, maybe i'll have a nice one taken at SW:UK2 when it's slightly more presentable

          Looking good Have you still got the adjusters in there? If you do that'll give you a bit more lows

            Nah I never even bothered putting it in. It would sit lower but the rear is sitting on bumpstops, which I can't cut down anymore. We'll come up with something...

            Pfft I'm not made of money, my poor man reps do me for now. I am on the look for new wheels though.

            • No bump stops?

              • Yeah if you like the sound of metal on metal everytime you hit a bump Cut/reweld where the spring sits and bumpstop hits is the one like he said

                • rip out the helper springs and if that fails, get some chassis notches going on.

                  guarentee it'll sit mad low!

                  • I pretty sure hes not running helpers, they're just a bitch to slamm from what i gather...


                    Could you not get shorter shocks?(do they make them without ££££ being spent?)

                        Well you never asked haha. If your at Jordans tonight walk round and have a look...

                        Also this is not an easy car to slam, but I like the challenge. I'll get some pictures of the modifications the front arches took.

                        I don't have any helpers etc, the rear is a beam and panhard setup so the shock and spring are separate

                              • Not 'too' dissimilar to the BMW, they have springs sat like that with separate shocks. Luckily I have my adjuster still in so have a long way to go down.
