Re: Coilovers/suspension
road car also, just do a bit of drifting now and again, but the fronts were so soft the tyres were hitting the wings. i like the ride height, just want it stiff.
currently have Boge gas shocks and eibach springs all round (60-40)

Re: Coilovers/suspension
cheers for the advice,
so what set up of shocks and springs will give a good hard setup. i go drifting and need to be alot stiffer than i am at the moment.

Coilovers/suspension
Ok guys another coilovers/suspension question.
What are you using?
As the cheap £200 coilovers are clearly no use and then the next step up seem to be the £600-£700 gaz coilovers...
Are there any middle of the road decent ones. Maybe in the £400 region?
Cheers

Re: ABS Removal
better yes, but not easyer as all i need to do it pop in the connectors. job done, i think if i dont re install the ABS after the MOT i will just renew the brake pipes like you suggest, but theyre are new pipes already in it.
