After some coilovers <600

[Sportrider]

Hi Guys

after fitting my new alloys

they look like they are on stilts (as confirmed by a few members) lol

i did a quick photochop

and decided i need to get coilovers.

i need advice

i would prefer to have them fully fitted at 600 as i dont want to eat anymore into savings.

if anyone in bristol area would like to fit them on the cheap give me a pm

cheers guys

I'd say go for the Weitec's, great kits and perfect for everyday use.

Was going to suggest the FK sport edition plus, but looks like i dont need to. Good choice. Im running them on mine and have no complaints. Cost for fitting sounds very cheap.

im looking at ordering these very soon aswell!! Tom how do you find the damper adj, does it make a big difference?

Its not bad to be fair. There are six settings on each damper, 1 to 6. If i remember correctly 1 is the hardest setting. thats what i have mine set to and it isnt too bad. Nice and firm. I originally had it set on 6 when they first went on the car and it was shocking. Every bump the car would start to bounce. Not good. You might not want them as hard as setting 1 but to be fair ive had it like that for a few months now and it doesnt seem that bad.

Paid £450ish for the coilovers then fitted them myself.

Recieved the coilovers within a few working days, then took a few hours to fit.

just browsing teh net, and some sites categorise the ibizas into types.. eg 6L, 6K, 6K2?
now i think these year models but which is for which year?

 

[Tom.]

Ours is the 6L model. I believe the 6K is mk2 and 6K2 is mk3?
