Whos Good For Springs?

[mepwalo]

Im gonna have to stick with the grey steering wheel (Boooooo!!) but Ive decided that it might be nice to sit a bit nearer the tarmac instead (Yay!!)

Any advice guys?? Whos good for springs?? Whos good for fitting?? Any things I should consider before going ahead?? Am I gonna fudge my car in anyway etc etc etc.............

PI = -40mil

u can get some coilovers but they are all from the states or aus i think...

the place to check for them is paseo pimp

its a dedicated seo site from the states.... 97Paseo will ahve more info on it, as i dont use it.

Paseo pimp has left the building!! His URL doesnt work and his domains up for sale..............!Removed!!!

I found some Jamex springs on the net for £100 incl p+p!! Whatcha reckon??

Just become the proud owner of a 96 Paseo ST, and decided it needs lowering a bit too. If you can find a local motor factor who deals in ROC (Lesjofors) springs they can do a kit that drops it by 40mm and I think it should be a bit cheaper. They're on backorder at moment but should be in stock in a couple of weeks cos I spoke to them today. Don't think they deal direct with public but I'm lucky cos in the trade.

PaseoPIMP is still up & running but it's not much use, unless you want the coilovers?

I'm still undecided about lowering mine...not sure if I'd benefit as much with the 15's?

Pi do a kit as Mellow says, try POTN for them, as for fitting I think it depends where you go but shouldn't be to bad.

Dazh - welcome to the club! Get some pics of your car up!

Mep you could always brighten the interior with some other bits? I have a Momo gear-knob which helps as does a cool head-unit & maybe some matts? I've also replaced my cigarette lighter with a Ripspeed item :)

I was wondering about somehow fitting some dials? Like water temp etc, not sure where or how! What do you guys think?

hmmmm... not sure if a seo needs additional gauges... but hey if u wanna do then go for it!

as the car has a double din, why dont u guys get a universal tray for the big block with toyota on it... thought id never use it when i got it, jus wanted to get rid of some change i had in my pockets.... but i use it all the time now and its got rid of that garish platic.

depending on how mad u wanna go, there is plenty u can do to srpuce t interior up... i had in mind a set of Cobra Sidewinders... but i aint gonna use the car enough now to warrant £600+ for bucket seats....

Pre Woodee do that plastic stick on thing to change the interior panels (centre console, around the vents, dial surround, door handle surround etc)... u got a host of colours to choses from as well as wood, brushed alu, carbon effects... all for £80 - £100 i think...

then u could nova it up a bit with floor lighting and a storbe or summin...

Yea! I know it doesn't need it just thought it might look interesting, I've seen a few Seo's in the US with them in pillar mounted pods, looks ok.

Was wondering about incorporating some in the double DIN slot, dunno, prob woudn't work!

Thats plastic alu/wood stuff is seriously over-priced though isn't it You can spray up the dash surround, I've seen it done & it's good but I'd most likely mess it up! :P
