My car dropped on AP coilies!!

[AndyHazza]

They are all looking spot on. Basssound yours is miles better now with it sitting like that.
Joel... Your Fabia is exactly the same height as mine Could have wound the front down even more if i'd wanted, but the sump is lower than a racing snake as it is LOL!!

I'm glad everyone is happy with the AP's too. Just proves what we have been saying about them, superb quality and ride, at a very good price.

a VERY big to you all!

Theres mine as it is now. Thats with the rear adjusters in. Reakon they should come out?

 

[Ultra_Joel88]

I'd leave it like that but it needs spacers badly

 

[NickLCR]

Yeh I know, looks pants with the wheels tucked back in the arches.

Was looking at these : http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/15mm-Hubcentr...22154QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262

How much are these coilovers?

Look though the post mate, there £360ish

Anyways, i've fitted mine last night. Ended up taking about 4 hours after have problems getting the drop link off the drivers side.

i set the fronts so there was 40mm of thread left on them and the rear with all the way down with the spring seats still in, think i'm going to bring the front up slightly though

Overall its a good kit! worth the money imo

 

[Gooner_Mike]

Looks awesome mate! Front up a bit would look better... I need dropped suspension in my life

 

[Ultra_Joel88]

So Nam did you leave the blue adjusters in the back or just the black seat?

 

[nam]

all the rears seats are in, even the blue bits!

supprised that it sits as low as it does with them in

 

[mattydebb123]

looks really nice i want some! think the insurance company would have a fit though. lol

 

[Ultra_Joel88]

How is everyone getting on with this kit?

I'm fairly impressed however still getting the odd noise, I greased the front spring seats and it worked for a while but came back. Mainly a creaking noise doing manouveres and a clunking from the passenger side over big bumps, fook knows.

 

[NickLCR]

It's a great kit, very impressed by it. I had the odd creak from the back, greased it up and it went. It's probably due to the salt dryin out the bushes.

Had the odd rubbing on the front on a country road. Speed bumps are no problem, even the square ones. Looking to get a rear anti roll bar to compliment them

 

[Ultra_Joel88]

Do you get anything from the front, did you fit normal droplinks?

 

[NickLCR]

No knocks or anything from the front, just a very occasional rub on an uneven road. Standard Front ARB drop links are on the front

 

[Ultra_Joel88]

Also, to adjust the fronts which way is lower and which way is higher?.

I am assuming winding the adjuster plate to the RIGHT makes it lower?

 

[NickLCR]

Ahhh i can't remember. It'll be obvious by looking at it when you try adjusting it

 

[Tom.]

If you turn the adjuster clockwise from looking down on it, it should go lower.

 

[IbizaTDI08]

Had mine done on APs last week and i have been very impressed with them, the ride is fantastic, is not harsh and takes the bumps very well,

will probably let them set then go slightly lower, wheel spacers are going on the rear tomorrow!

 

[Damoegan]

Do the AP coilovers require shorter droplinks? If so are they included in the kit?

 

[Tom.]

If you read through, a few have stated they are using the standard drop links, so make of that what you will.....
