Right finally fitted my ebay bargain coilovers and what a difference! Wow wasn't expecting it to handle so much better. After the first set up it was so low that we couldn't get it off the lift at the garage 8O Anyway nearly right now, just need to drive it a bit to sort final few tweaks out.
You can see how much it's been lowered from the pics! Anyway what do you critics think?
This is how I bought her.
Then changed the rims and fitted a debadged grille.
Then some dial tweaks.
Now the coilovers.
Sorry for blurry images.
Now im confused…….in pic one you have 4 stud wheels and pic 2 you have 5 stud wheels……..i take it you did a conversion???

Very similar in appearance, yet different and keeping up with the trends.
Here's another pic I found with my mates S2000. He's the one who had the Integra Type R and where I saw the red recaros. Note the pic was taken before I fitted my recaros, crystal crosshairs, smoked indicators & A pillar trims.

1. Changed rear lights and fitted a Rabbit GTI badge that I made.
2. Here's how it looks at the mo. New smoked crystal cross hair headlights.
3. I've got a private plate waiting to go on, can't put them on until christmas day as they are a present.
4. I'm going to take off the Design 90's and put the original Le Castellets back on, was getting annoyed with how fast the polished finished dulled. Probably lower the front by an extra 10mm in the process as well.

I changed the headlights & grille pretty much straight away but didn't notice too much of a difference. :dontknow: Well I think that they're alrigh to drive with now, you'll get used to it pretty quick. The ebay coilovers seem to be very good for the price. When I fitted them first, it was so low that I couldn't get it off the ramp arms! 8O But there is loads of adjustment. I'm actually gonna raise it up again this weekend, just low enough to get a trolly jack underneath. The handeling is fansatic :mrgreen:
I had the same problem with mine, I left it low though and bought a motorsport trolley jack off ebay and its slides under a treat. Only cost ?109.00, made of alloy, real piece of kit and it has a really good lifting range to.

Are you selling the Porsche wheels?
