DavidAshton Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 My cars arse has always been too high, way higher then my n/a ever was and it was running kyb gas shock and some random springs, so i came to the conclusion they were 30mm springs.So ive now swapped them for some 40mm springs, same as i had on my n/a and the ride height has hardly dropped at all, its no where near what my n/a was.Now the only difference is the V has a panhard rod and the n/a didnt, when i had the car jacked up i was looking at the panhard rod and in my head i think it could make the car sit higher.So question is does it? if i loosen it, should it drop more?

StarletRick Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 good input shaney, well done... also, a panhard rod doesnt affect height at all. it just adjusts the rear axle to centre it when you lower it. your NA had a panhard rod aswell, all starlets do. Quote
DavidAshton Posted November 30, 2009 Author Posted November 30, 2009 Sorry i meant my V has an adjustable aftermarket one, my n/a had whatever the factory gave it. Thanks aswell Rick, guess ill have to look at some other way of getting it lower. Quote
shaneyb Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 Cheers starletRick.Im on pi 40mm springs right dave? My rear is higher then the front aswell. Quote
DavidAshton Posted November 30, 2009 Author Posted November 30, 2009 Yeah yours is on PI springs, yeah the rear is higher than the front but my rear is way higher than the red one was one the same spring / shock combo. Quote

Guest cheshireglanza Posted November 30, 2009 Posted November 30, 2009 how did you put your front eye brows on mine keep blowning off Quote
DavidAshton Posted November 30, 2009 Author Posted November 30, 2009 how did you put your front eye brows on mine keep blowning off Double sided sticky tape mate, the foam style stuf. One of my first ones blew off after about 6 months but i hardly put any tape on so this time ive covered the whole insides in tape and they have been grand. Quote
