[Enuo]

[RyanEllis]

That's fair enough but I think your underestimating the weight of suspension components when it comes to postage

 

[MicrAde]

It's well cheap enough for a complete package with that drop

You're forgetting Ade micra owners are cheapskates, I could half the price and people would try to haggle

£100 karl... people will faint at 3 figure misery.
Worth it for full set up in my opinion

I have no idea about 3 finger misery, I just didn't think it sounded very pleasant. Plenty of coffee yes but not weetabix. It's wholemeal toast and peanut butter for me...it's not only for bumpers you know

Need gone so open to sensible offers

Need gone so open to sensible offers

Sensible?? You'll be lucky

 

[h701micra]

I own a micra so I'm entitled to offer pence

 

[karlj]

Can we keep this on track please, I know people would rather spend money on **** coil overs that need modifying to fit over something that is a safe straight swap but like I said I need these gone so I'm open to sensible offers

[Kamarley]

So the fronts only get you a 35mm drop???

 

[h701micra]

This kit lowers you between 60 and 80 mil

 

[Kamarley]

But they are 35mm springs so how do you get more low than that??

 

[h701micra]

They lower a matiz 35mm. Micra is different and likely to be heavier so you end up with more drop

 

[karlj]

Stock matiz springs will drop a k11 approx 50mm....

So 50+35=85 but that's all approximations

 

[peterjas18]

How does the car drive with the front set up my friend had his dropped 50mm and messed up his steering rack. And can you put a pic up of how it looks with this set up on if pos please

Car drives normally

Your friend obviously done something wrong

Should be pictures in my blog

 

[Kamarley]

Do you always need the car tracked again after lowering??

 

[h701micra]

You should have it tracked everytime you touch anything suspension related

 

[Kamarley]

Whoops lol!

 

[h701micra]

Not everyone does tho

 

[Kamarley]

Lol I will when I get the 60mm springs! I'm only on 40mm's atm

 

[karlj]

Is any of this conducive to the sale of my suspension?

 

[Kamarley]

Wow scrouge much Karl

 

[Enuo]

+1 on the corsa shocks and re-engineered springs

 

[karlj]

[karlj]

Need the money I'm afraid, and I've got someone on the fb group saying they're saving for it

 

[Clodo]

Pm'd buddy

Chloe
X

 

[h701micra]

Yay mildred go low

Sorry karl not hijacking... just excited you might have these sold

 

[karlj]

No not sold...

Please is you're going to make an offer understand how heavy suspension is.

Chloe yours has been the most realistic offer so far

 

[Clodo]

Worth a try.... Times are a wee bit tight and Mildred is higher than bob Marley on stilts!

 

[h701micra]

Karl... what about collection at jae to knock costs down a bit? Makes it cheaper to buy and easier for you?
I'd pay you now and collect at jae. I'd trust you enough to bring it with you. Just an idea for you to throw out there? (Except I don't a k11)

 

[karlj]

I would say yes but it's the only suspension I have lol was hoping to sell it and get a stock setup
