yeah my thoughts exactly and the fact hes ignoring my txts and Pm's is so frustrating :harhar:

Heres the pics, you can see its been cut, ive compaired them to markoos's springs and he has like and extra 3 coils on his, its just obvious its been done but hes sating he hasnt, i wouldnt mind doing that, refund me the cost of the springs and send the springs back and then go and buy a brand new set. ive seeked advice so if he still decides to ignor me then i will take this further. "> "> "> "> Heres a pic of them on the shock, see how the end of the spring isnt flat and pushes the top mount unevenly.">

Said he never cut them but its plain obvious, i will get them up in the new few minutes guys

Well i dont really wanna do that, its like spending out on the same thing twice

Well recently bought a shock and springs combo second hand off a fellow member......coff! andyglanza coff! And well the kyb excel shocks were pretty good condition so i was reasonably pleased with these but when i got the springs i was unsure about which way around the rear springs went, now after allot of research and gettin on allot of peoples nerves goin on about them lol, ( sorry idress ) i finally phoned tein direct, after talking to them i found out that they have been cut down :harhar: now this has really pissed me off, as he never said they had been cut down and now the car sits allo

got my whiteline panhard rod today, and when unpacking it a small spacer fell out of the package?? any ideas where this goes or even if it was meant to be in there lol cheers guys, starlybrusier

Ah ok nice one mate thanks for the help , hopefully its not too cold tommoz so I can get them on lol, hopefully get some pics too should looks pretty good on them springs. I didnt wanna go too low as cardiff, as you might know is littered with speed humps just wanna fill the arches them I gorra find out what this little spacer is for and where it goes, which I had with my whiteline panhard rod lol

so its tight coils on the bottom and the loose ones at the top, same as idress's shocks

Also when the springs are mounted the opposite way around to the ones in idress's thread the top mounts dont sit quite right on the top??

Well i got some tein shocks mounted on excel g shocks that i got off a fellow member, but i thought the back springs were on the wrong way around, so did bourkey, but after seeing idress's suspension thread i have other thoughts they came with the tight coils on the bottom of the shocks and loose coils at the top which i thought was wrong, but in the thread by idress ( i know they are different springs ) they are mounted the same?? heres the link tho the thread below, any ideas guys?? any one who actually has teins too?? cheers http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6441

They ruled my life at one point lol, i love them all from old tamiyas to the latest buggys and trucks, ive currently got about 9 but i will probly be selling them in the future, i never have the time for them anymore , good fun tho, and like you said great fun building them and repairing them

Well i ordered quite a few bits off here and the service is amazing, very fast delivery and amazing communications, top lad

Pretty sure they do it while you wait

ah ok cool matey, that was one of my biggest worries, speed humps lol, but yeah the teins should be ok, i always crawl over the humps anyway, you dont want to be driving behind me when there's speed humps around lol, people go crazy with me haha

Fair play mate, that looks miles better now! nice drop, not too low, so they are still goin to be practical over the speed bumps :surrender: you recon the excel g's will handle the tein springs ok? i dont want to get them and then find a few miles later they have shit there selves lol :surrender:

Well ive been offered a spring - shock combo for my glanza that consists of kyb exel G shocks and Tein S-tech springs and i just wondered if anyone has any good pics to show the drop of those springs? also any opinions on this combo? will those shocks handle them springs bein only slight upgrade over stock shocks? cheers guys, starlybruiser :surrender:

Fair play mate, thats a very nice gt you got there, and the exhaust looks uber sexy bet it sounds it too lol, have fun with her mate, just keep an extra careful eye on those knob heads around your area starlybruiser.

Yeah that sounds like a good plan be a mini adventure what sorta date you have in mind for this meet?

Should be able to make this meet, count me in for now anyway 1. Sparky - Silver Quadlight, Gwent area 2. Vboi! - Glanza, Bridgend area 3. Rhys (southwales_tuner) - Black GT quadlight, Gwent area 4. glanzaturbo(kyle)- silver glanza - caerphilly 5. jam35 -silver glanza bridgend (TGTT) 6. Starlybruiser - Black V - Cardiff

Nice GT mate, looks mint, just as a thought, maybe the heater isnt getting warm because its been bypassed due to a leaky heater matrix in the past? just an idea mate, if the thermostat wasnt working the engine would be gettin alot hotter than normal temp, just an idea mate, check the pipes, cheers starlybruiser

yeah they would, any other suggestions? i would prefere something i can just straight swap instead of either coilys, which ned setting up, or koni's that need messing around with, are the kyb shocks ok down to 40mm? cheers buddy

if they are the same as the standard shocks shouldnt i save money and just put tein's on my standard shocks? cheers buddy

yeah but the manufactures said they wont fit, i rang Gmax directly today

Oh street for sure, i dont plan on goin to any drag or track days

yeah mate, rang Gmax direct and they said the kit will not fit a glanza only the uk n/a's ah well never mind, yeah the konis are surposed to be good but they are pricey too aint they, any others you would recommend? cheers buddy
