Okay new update the car is now running off air. The KW V2 have found a new owner and i purchased the Rayvenr Hydraulics kit. Okay i probably should of taken some pics during install but it was such a mission to get it all done i didnt in the end sorry. But anyway after now having the arches rolled i can put her down pretty low, here are some pics:

After having the system installed for a few weeks i can say i am really pleased to say that the handling is very very good with it. I have it all controlled by this Dakota Digital controller:

It at the moment is getting its own mount made which will look pretty trick when done.

There are a few more mods to do before inters next week but i hope you like the pics you have got for now :) as just finishing off the boot with the tank

Im intrigued....is the handling as good on the bags as when you had the V2's fitted?

i'm gunna say it...you'll hate me for it....but..

adore the bagged drop

, spot on....but..

makes the rims look too small to me now, bagged cars need big rims to dump properly, nothing stoopid but a decent 19" minimum for me then they adopt that tucked in stance more

managed to beach my car last week, lost alot of paint under the skirts

i'll be passing on the bags for mine now, i'll just have to admire yours dude

how fast is the drop? did you manage to stage it?

Cheers for the replies guys. As for the handling i dont think its as good as the KW V2s but i do need to play with the dampening a bit to get it spot on. It is a lot lot better then stock or the GAZ coilovers i borrowed for a bit, so i would say it is a good as good set of coilovers. But on the country roads i hit the limit of the road before i hit the limit of the car.

Lol trust you to say that - but then 19s would give too rubbish a ride. There has to be some comparise between form and function :)

Well here is a little sneek peak of the boot:
