heh heh

Speaking of which, how much of a pain in the arse is it to fit a new rear bush to my car Ron - don't worry I won't ask you to do it, just wondered what kind of pain it is for someone to do?

Looks great but other than that what are the benefits of lowering the car?

For me it was a couple of things.

Lowering it makes it look nicer.

It was a chance to sort the suspension out, via greasing, done by me so I know it is a 100% greased.

The road handling is a lot sharper for me, less body roll in round abouts also.

It doesn't feel as if it throws the weight up front under braking in an unrulie fashion like it used to when you were driving it very hard.

These are just a few of the personal things I have found.

How much are you lowered by Col ??

Do you have a link to the H&R Coilovers ??

Give us a report regarding the handling and ride quality once your geo is done
