Bally 0 Posted October 20, 2003 looking nice matey! not sure if its just the pic, but in 2.jpg the back looks a bit high? what springs you got on it? Cheers for the replies guys, There meant to be 55mm springs from Venoms, but richard said the front will sit lower, although I'm not really happy with it.. :roll: want it lower.. :) Dan, I've heard that they handle better with the front sitting lower :?

G60Dan 0 Posted October 20, 2003 Dan, I've heard that they handle better with the front sitting lower :? Duno what that's all about, if the front is lower, the ar5e of the car won't be gripy & won't go round corners very well at all. So I'm afraid you have herd wrong there mate. If you have the front lower than the back, that is good for sprints/ 1/4 mile type thing. It's all about weight transfer. Simple when you think about it.

Bally 0 Posted October 20, 2003 Shit!! looks like I've been told aload of crap then!! :cry: I thought it was the same on all cars about the weight thing, hence my escort being LOW :wink: Oh well, just got to think of a way of getting the back sitting down abit... :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I found with my corrado, that the front sat higher before it was lowered... :? cars hey :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
