:D :D :D

I just orderd some kinda coilover

[corollasr]

who'd you order them from? and how much you paying

have looked on motorsportworld.co.uk and have seen the KW variant 1 coilovers and they're 650 odd quid.

whilst i was on the site i found the Koni adjustables with springs, but dont want the springs as wanna go for something a bit lower, but with retained damping control

I will have to pay the VAT when they come in the uk but thats no biggy

[corollasr]

think i'll stick with uprated dampers and springs, much cheaper

Ok dude

If you look around there are some companys selling coliover kits mate have a look at groundcontrol I think they are selling one now

[corollasr]

they just seem to be these weird things that you put on the springs.

think i'll just upgrade the whole suspension setup as it'll last longer

ok in that case you will have to spend the cash mate

I am only going to get them as I have superstrut suspension and it's very easy to get hold of them.

hope they turn up quickly as I want the car finished for jae :D

Im interested in coilovers too ed. Opted out of fitting the lowering springs cos I knew I would need to change the shocks soon enough anyway.

Im almost finished uni for the year, so start work soon so should be able to afford them.

Keep me posted if you find out anything mate.
