Hey Guys,
 
Just wanted to know where in the UK i can get some lowered springs for my 85 series 3 first gen..
 
If peoples could post what springs they got and any pics of how low the car sits that would be great :)

kings springs are the lowest you will get before coilovers but cost wise i found them to be the same

Can you get king springs local or do they have to come from aus?

I have a set of PI fronts you can have.  Sposed to be -35mm.  

I payed £80 odd for another identical set which didn\'t lower it any further than the ones I took off!  You are welcome to the spare set for free if you want em.

Seems good value.

I\'ve got an FC steering rack & brake conversion & I dunno how this would affect an FC coilover kit.

I do know that i\'m using FB springs, so I asume the shocks ar FB too?

Didn\'t fit it myself so I don\'t really know what to buy.

Bit of a mechanical dunce you see :2Confused

if you are using FB springs then you have FB struts so the FB kit should be fine (double check with Tim first but 99% sure) its a great kit well worth the money

Will speak to Tim - need to find out a bit more about posssibility of larger turbo anyways.

Oh which kit did you go for? the Road one?  Also did it come complete with shocks/springs?

yes went for the street one, you will need to upgrade your shocks and order the springs from Re-Speed just decide on which rate spring you want

Don Pamponi

can they supply shocks aswell?  Would mine fit as they are if not?

Must get this sorted for the summer!
