Oh and by the way- THe ebay seller hottuning/ukno1tuning is supplying Raceland Coilovers NOT TA TECHS but im guessing they are the same really just diff brand!

got the back on and the ride is fine- Not too Stiff and not soft- just right for the streets id say!

I put an offer in for the 6N coilovers... They're on there at £189.00 and I offered £139... Not too bothered if it's rejected but I will get 'em if he accepts.

Bought them for £150... I've read a couple of mixed reviews online so hope they're ok...

Mine are fine. They're a tad bumpy but for £200 you cannot complain!

It'll be the first time I've driven a lowered car... Is it really noticeable?

The ride quality? It is different but it's fine, you get totally used to it. This was the first car I lowered also. So you'd be in the same boat I was.

my last three cars were all lowered. i actually prefer it- its a more enjoyable drive :D

first time ive fitted coilovers though!

Update- Coilovers are on- but changing the front hub and bearing as well so cars been off the road as 2 of my hub treads were badly worn! one of them was completely gone from about 6 months ago! ( a trigger happy tyre mech with a gun)

hopefully car should be back on road 2 moro! cant wait to pitch it into a few bends :twisted:
