But cleaner  :P


....I wonder if your ears are burning, Nath - I've just got off the phone to Justin and he mentioned meeting you and how clean your machine was at that Dub show recently.

After what I told him, he now wants to meet you in a car park and have personal tuition from you about rims. :evilgrin:

Justin?

Car Park you say  :evilgrin:

yeah i know, i put koni fsd and eibach pro kit a couple of months ago but it didn't lower it enough.
What is a good spring to use with fsd's that would lower a bit more.

Einbach sportlines seem to be a popular spring, they lower it more than the Eibach pro kit. H&R do an 'ultra low' spring which lowers it 45-50mm. They would be the ones I would go for  :happy2:

....Yes, it's important not to use springs which lower beyond the FSD's capabilities - Otherwise you could have a nasty mishap!

Your best bet is to contact Koni and find out properly.

Someone I know of had such a problem and it didn't manifest itself immediately.

Out of interest RedRobin since I have koni fsd's, what was the problem you had with them.
