-No ReWorx are always too busy for anything to be done about it, which is a little rubbish!

-The wheels are 17\'s but just didn\'t feel the arches so got a set of 18\'swhich do it nicely.

-The spring are eibach springs & running them on my standard shocks was surprisingly good, ace for city driving.

Kei office coilovers.
About half as low as they go
16 inch standard wheels




the about as high as they go

dtheb you got any vids of that thing hanging its arse out? whats it like with a welded diff REALLY be honest! \'could\' you use it as a daily drive?

ps love the look of that tII!!

if i could find some coilies for around the 150 - 200 mark then i might concider it but for now im sticking to springs that\'ll stiffen it up at the back loads anyway...... i hope

[dthebuk]

my mate has one of the fd. But nothing of the FC im afraid. Actually thats a lie, its in this for a bit, but not sideways :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7N_kGctM048

. Only time ive stuck the end out in the FC once it had the diff i got ....y and span out. I blamed the rear steer, so got started on moving the bushes and ended up breaking the hubs. So just waiting on parts

tbh with a welded diff its brilliant. It puts sooo much power down through the corners, you really begin to see how rubbish the open diff is. Living with its fine. The diff just acts as a brake when your turning slowly on full lock, so you have to be more positive with it. If you\'re not bombing it or turning slowly (sub 5 mph) it isnt noticeable.
Its harder to live with the kei office coilovers, they\'re stupidly stiff. You realize why once your hit the corners though

Weld the diff and never look back

[alxlaw]

fk it might as well!!, - never look back?...... no ill be looking out the passenger window instead lol!! just need to get it going first!! lol!!

[dthebuk]

well it will be a million times more fun than the stupid open diff. Whats the point in all that power if its going to the wrong wheel!!

[James H]

Yep the white bbs style alloys were only 17\'s!

[alxlaw]

right!

think there gonna discharge me today - altho i still cant walk un aided or with crutches...... but hey i can get on with the car and as i cant drive it for at least 2 weeks i can do stuff to it, (or get willing friends too)

sort the ecu
fix the vac pipes/ air leak
weld the diff
stick my 18\'bbs alloys on
get those 35mm springs on too......(would i be a pikey if i cut the top coil off the lowering springs?) i mean the cars gonna be higher by an inch overall what with it having 1" bigger wheels ......and i love your ride height dthb!
