Fooking love it mate, really does look the bollocks!

Pop out Wed if you can

Applemobile · 19-02-2009, 19:33

Cheers mate

Will see what i can do mate, depends what hours im working.

*UncleFester* · 19-02-2009, 19:35

That looks absolutely fantastic sat like that - wheels are right where they should be! Quite quite jealous

Applemobile · 19-02-2009, 19:38

Cheers mate. You say that but im not overly happy with the backs. Im going to space them out just a little bit so its wider from behind. But not too much to be comical. Oh and the car is going lower by exactly 1inch all rouns.

*UncleFester* · 19-02-2009, 19:55

An inch ... surely that's akin to a mile given its current height ... how on earth are you going to find the space to get it down further. Out of interest, does lowering it that far down not place extra stress on the suspension components?

Applemobile · 19-02-2009, 20:03

Well i want it sat on the floor when the bags are empty. And the lowest point is now about 3/4 of an inch off....but that will be ground back

It puts no extra stress on teh components, im mearly making some of teh components smaller, so its lower to the floor.

*UncleFester* · 19-02-2009, 20:07

Will look forward to the pics when it's 'down' ... will you be taking pics of what you have to grind off / relocate to get it on the floor?

Applemobile · 19-02-2009, 20:09

Yeah i shall be mate. What im thinking of doing is making a sump guard wich i been wanting to do for ages

Then probably a fueltank guard and litterally cover all teh vunerable parts under the car.

Including the fuel lines i'd guess - are you planning on driving it around that low? I have to be honest, i LOVE the way it goes up and down on the bags - throw away the C spanner and never worry about a rough grass showground ever again!

Applemobile · 19-02-2009, 20:17

Its sounds easy.....But after a while you grow bored of putting it up for bumps and then down again. Its too much effort. I just end up attempting to tackle obsticals the good old fashioned way

stef cupra · 19-02-2009, 22:55

that looks sick!

somie2k · 20-02-2009, 21:39
