Mark 1 lowered springs or coilies second hand !!!!

[GoLfMan]

I'm not huge fan of hottunnings or anything, but you honestly think that a chopped spring is safer? (let alone better and approvable?!)

plus Hot Tuning's are TUV approved

[Preen59]

Depends on how much you cut, dude. And i do agree with Stu. If you don't go silly, cut springs will handle better with decent dampers.

This's irrelevant, really, as there are so many variables to the TUV approval (such as the height and load range within which the approval is actually valid and the usage parameters, just to begin with). There's definitely a market for them - it's just on show cars that don't get driven much

i daily mine... but thena gain Im a cheap arse, and nothing goes lower

Yea, if you cut one or two coils off (and the spring is still captive) it's not particularily unsafe. but to get anywhere near the height (drop) that HT's can go, you're looking at springs cut in half or having 2-3 coils! I know which one I'd rather be driving around on! (and also what I'd rather be driving around on now, given I have personal experience with hottunings - on a daily basis!)

back to the orginal post i would say buy some lowering springs.
most second hand coliovers are seized

Remember coilover are a harsh ride unless you really spend a fair bit of cash on a set.

my opinion is a set of springs then save for some good dampers to match

ok Cool springs maybe the option im looking into buying the spring/shocks off the valver guy, but if i can get just springs cheaper that mayb the best option as i have pretty much brand new shocks all around, so in the brisbane area whats a good place to get springs?

[Jarred]

if he's selling a matched cup kit, i'd go for that. ride could be better - becuase the the springs and shocks are matched to each other.
