ok so i bought the coilovers that fit over your stock struts....


All i have to say is DO NOT!!!!! I REPEAT DO NOT BUY THEM...


Why you may ask?.... because most of them come with allen wrenched screw used to stabilize the coilover the strut which are very weak i tried this method and thankfully it broke when it wasnt moving after i put my new tires on while my car was on the lift.

basically the coilover shattered and came out of the boot so if you like yor car do not buy the coilovers and yes some of you probably did and the ened up working fine but mine didnt so this is just a warning!!!! thanks guys

i agree. We got a set for free and it didnt even have the allen key things, we got a grinder and modified where the bolt goes on so theres a 10mm bolt in there now. its been good as gold since then haha

lol....i dont think any car could of turned a u turn going like 50mph....i redlined 3rd gear...so that put me at around 85 mph...then i slowed down...but the car wanted to go straight instead of turning...but the tires are crap....im going with some sticker stuff next time.

fight fight fight even. Good suspensions useless on shit tyres as i found out. when i did a skid on that keyboard it removed the last few usable mm of tread from my tyre and thats why i understeered into that bank lol
