Asad Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 http://page16.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/u28030022that looks good who do i go to, to get it for me? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Its only an apexi filter their easy to get over here, generally yahoo is best off for parts that are hard or very expensive to get over here as the shipping cost's aren't cheap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 for that price? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MattyCD Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 yeah you may aswell buy from here, with customs to go through etc its not worth it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Its still got 4 days to go. And yes you could get a second hand apexi filter over here for 20quid thats what the shipping and tax's will cost. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 Thanks...fought id get 1 cheap till i save enough for the apollo....whats fuel consumption like with induction?also will these give me a 25mm drop all round?http://page12.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p126493186whats the price?

ecksjay Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 get apexi filters off ebay mate, they're literally 20quid delivered.rsr springs are only a 25mm drop yeah, wouldnt advise it without uprated shocks though, ruins the ride, springs are heavy also, will be over £100 easily when they get here and customs/tax has been paid, stuff like that is best to buy in uk as people have already gone through the hassle of importing.

Galliano Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 yes SR springs are 25mm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 You should be OK with 25mm mate SR's dont have different shocks so yea you will be fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 it'll work, but how long it'll last is another matter ;] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 im still gonna attempt 60mm on my standard shocks..they are new.. by about 10k miles, so im not wasting money on new shocks and all.probably not going to stick with 60mm long though, i want my car to be more OEM than insane.

ecksjay Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 its not just the lifespan, its the fact that the shocks rebound rate is designed for the stock springs, as soon as you lower it with stiffer springs, the rebound rates are completely thrown off, thats why you get bone jarring ride and poor handling. If you invest in shocks that are designed for low/stiff springs, it can be as comfy as standard ride height, as they're designed for the springs from the outset.There is a science to it, but if you just want a lower motor then by all means crack em onto the stock shocks, just keep an eye on them every few weeks to ensure they dont begin leaking, better to be safe than sorry after all.60mm on stock shocks would be, ahem, interesting. you'll probably struggle with scrubbing of wheels, exhausts etc at 60mm, it may well bottom out on speed bumps which isn't nice, 40mm is a decent drop as its not TOO low, but it all depends what else is fitted to the car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 the cars not moving for a good year yet though, it will be on 15s although someone has tried 60 on 14" steelies.. and they only just cought speedbumps so i know of..will be looking at selling the 60mm springs and getting the 25mm ones someday.. just when i can afford it.. i hate my current arch gaps..
