Sitting Low

[Daz]

.....so..its finally done. Ive lowered the stivo! :D

**Woot** no more 4wd stance and i must say it looks and feels awesome (no bias of course :D )

The car is on G-force coilovers (courtesy of Pippy)

at first the mechanic got it a little to low for day to day driving (looked awesome but jst wasnt practical )

After a few adjustments to dampening and ride height the car ended up here:

and i must say the handling is awesome and im very happy with the look. Save for a few alterations to driving, taking speed humps and entering and exiting the driveway, i am very pleased with the result!

PS: they were installed by Midas Rockdale for a very competitive price: $140.00 inc F&R wheel alignment. It pays to compare and bargain! B)

$140 for coilovers and allignment? You sure it aint $1400? Cause if it isnt then out comes my chequebook!

Cheers dude. Handling is pretty good.. can take corners at speed.. handles like a go-kart (as they say)

wouldnt kno how to describe the ride.. i mean its alot stiffer then stock. but has a little bit more bounce on the little bumps??

hehe yeh i know. i called plenty of places. Its a funni story coz when i brought my car in to fit them, the guy i left the key with even said id got a really good price. The dud i spoke to on the phone must have misunderstood me when i said coilovers. I think he thought i meant springs.. and only for a front install..

i made sure i was very clear over the phone.. but that was the end result. And being a large company i guess they have to honour such quotes- even if it was by error.
