Eibachs Fitted
« on: October 21, 2011, 02:48:18 PM »
Picked up my car today after having the Eibachs and brake hoses i recieved from Daron at TMC fitted,i much prefer the look now the car has'nt got it's rear end in the air!the measurements on the Cliff scale are 2 and a bit fingers up the rear and 2 fingers in the front! ;D ,took it for a quick spin along the A249 a dual carriageway with a couple of nice roundabouts to chuck it into and must admit i felt a lot more confident flying around them now than i did before,the car felt like it was hugging the road! even though i was well within the speed limit  ;) Brakes felt good also !
put the coupe bumpstops on as well, bloody hell arnt the original one a size :o and the fellas in the garage said my BTB exhaust was the best hand made exhaust they had seen so all good :thumb:

Cheers mate! A little bumpy but not too bad,the coupe bumpstops make a huge difference I went down an unmade rd and felt the rear springs actually er spring!  :thumb:

That it does. :thumb: I cant believe people let their cars sit on the standard (nonSS) springs. Not a good look :thumb:

Yeah changed fluid for ATE super blue,pedal feels firmer and seems like only have to touch the pedal now
Well happy with it all today :thumb:

Think I am going to have to invest in some after christmas been meaning to for a while. Looks great, I don't like the way the car sits standard height at the back it annoys me every time I look at it  :thumbd:

Is that with standard shocks? Hows the ride? Thats the only thing I am slightly worried about.
