Cool never thought they did kits that went that low. Post up pics when

mine are a lot lower than 75mm there vmaxx, i know some people may say bad things about the springs, but the coilovers, well i havent had a problem with them and theyve been on a while.

For the price iam very tempted by these, plus a 2 year guarantee makes me think....

 

[Fordy_FR]

Isn't that car someone off this site? Maybe someone else has them fitted too

 

[CHR15B]

Hey, those look identical to mines... maybe it's TA-Technik I have too... will check it out.

Remember also to fit shorter drop links if your dropping the front a lot, or you'll find the ARB rubs off the driveshaft.

 

[kenny_fr]

Just looked at the vmaxx kit and it recommends drop links are used
what are drop links and what are they for anyone know?

Interested to know as ive just ordered an eibach pro street s kit would
I need to order these drop links or would they come with the eibachs.

 

[chrissyb103]

the reason that you need to get shortened drop links mate are because the standard ones are to long and when you deck it then it is likely that they will knock against your driveshafts.
if im right which i think i am the droplink is what connects the anti roll bar to the suspension.

 

[kenny_fr]

Cool didnt quiet understand what they were for so is that only with the vmaxx kit that shorter drop links are required or with any coilover kit?

 

[P33ULC]

the droplink is what connects the anti roll bar to the suspension.

Correct!

JESUS!!!

what a job!

hit a major problem along the way with this kit!

the top mount on the front coilovers wasnt big enough to fit over the internal shaft (see pic) and had to be bored out about 2mm all round got there in the end but it was a pig of a job!
so beware your gonna need a grinding stone to bore it out!

anyway got there in the end with some serious slammage!

ARB and driveshafts have miles of clearance gave it a boot about and no knocking and full left and right full lock

no adjusters in the rear - the way it should be lol

good quality kit and not too choppy only downfall was the top mount hole not being big enough!!

 

[CupraStoo]

looks awesome that low

let me know how u get on with them, i want some coilies! NOW!
