    Slammed mk1

    well, got my car just about 2 week ago now... finally got round to lowering it yesterday (-60mm apex) .... all the hard work done by a good mate off cliosport (ad) (see pic) and i pranced around acting like i knew what to do ;) lol

    Shocking the size difference of the uncompressed springs against each other





    Ad hard at work fitting some new dics and pads!



    Fooked pads



    Winded down the tosion bar about 60-70mm



    Finally lowered with and feels alot better now, talk about feedback through the wheel, can feel every fookin bump... lol!



    there she is, i have also sprayed the steelies black for now until my Renny5GT rims come and the shocs on the back seem to have lowered a touch and bedded in more, even fookin lower and no rubbing yet! :D

    will get better pics soon, wanky phones pics

    its so shit ride cause you are running standard shocks.

    if you get a set of 60mm lowering shock and a new set of 60mm rear shocks your wide will be inproved consideribly more that it is now

    looks good low

    i will get some more pics later lads, it looks mint and will be purchasing some Avo or Apex lowered shocks also, should improve the ride and handling dramatically!

    Coops- it is sitting even lower now the shocks have bedded in at that hright, getting a few bits sorted when i get home from work and will get some looooow pics!

    I ran standard shocks on my lowered RT for all the time i had it, it was fine. Save the money for a valver

    Looks good, especially in that stance

    I wanna know how much mine is lowered I was told 60mm but mine looks lower than that. Looks great btw, just needs some deep dish 13s or 14s and smoothing now lol.
