The race cams are on top of my list. Something like about 10-15bhp increase with about 25lb of extra torque :D

Looking good now!!! B) The wheels really suit a black T Sport!

I'm finding that there's lots of performance mods that I could do (and should, really) before getting the Dastek Unichip set up... if only I had the £s! :( I'm looking into getting a sports cat before I do the chip (inspiration from our member 'blacksheep'), but finding someone/somewhere in Middlesex/London is proving hard on the net...

hi ya !

well there just g-max springs brought from Halfords ( dont laugh mate works there got a discount lol )

think they were 35 mm drop on front and 45 on back

think looking at about £100 plus fitting unless like us u can do it yaself !

[Crazy Corolla]

Thanks for that. Ive done quite bit of research into different types of springs and even spoke to GMAX themselves!!. Their catalogue shows the springs are 45mm lowered at front and 30mm at rear!!!!

I dont know if its just me but my car looks higher at the back than than the front so would surely end up looking like the A-Team van with these springs on????

Any advice greatly appreciated

Cheers

it dcoes look like its nose diving a lil bit , hoping once ove got some weight in back will bring it down ! think its so if u do have peeps in the back it wont rub !

Those wheels are ace, really match the car, i'd stay clear of the piper cams, if you want more power simply invest in a power fc, and someone decent to tune it, you'll get more or less the same gains out of the stock cams as you would the piper cams, the problem isnt the cams beleive it or not, its the stock ecu map.
