looking higher than bob marley on stilts... but soon to be dropped to the floor!
Assuming this worked this is my K11 in all it's glory. Not much to look at I admit when you see some of the offerings but it's mine and in a strange way I love it. Needs a wash though

Keeping it pretty stock at the moment, looking for a new front drivers wing as mines become a bit rusty. Found 2 'inspirations' of the same year at a scrappy in a similar/same colour, they should be a perfect match right? Might get some black trims with the blue outline as well as ripping out/painting the front vents. Great little car, only a few 'non-issues' so far. Only got it as a runaround but loving it so far.
AH! you dont say! doing my head in. only way seems to be 6n coilies. but havnt got a clue how much they are tbh.Looks nice that Ash, could do with lowering though
Chop chop!!
na i defo not going down that route. want a stiff ride not a bouncy one like people said you get with chopped ones.Chop chop!!
Ive got chopped rears, rides nice, matches fronts.

yeh its a free way but i want to do it properly. dont want to be facing future problems like getting a new mot and having to change the springs etc just to get it through. chuck on some 6n rear colies and leave it be. gotta drop the perch on the matiz legs aswell.
With corsa b rear shocks you wont have to change cut springs for MOT and the way you're planning you'll have a very stiff rear and a soft compliant front
man's got a point... matiz compared to polo coilies will be a big difference... you never know though you might like it! meant to be softer over the driving wheels anyway to keep them on the floor more. I think you'll find (as i did with a rock solid rear briefly) that the rear wont roll much and you'll get a slightly tail happy car in the wet, but it will turn in well and be more responsive in general.With corsa b rear shocks you wont have to change cut springs for MOT and the way you're planning you'll have a very stiff rear and a soft compliant front

Softer springs make the car have more grip, but when you enter a corner the suspensio has to load up before you have the full weight of the car of the tyres on the car giving grip. A twisty course will see you better with a stiffer spring and/or anti roll bar to minimise the time taken for the weight to shift from one side to the other
Shocks take the bounce out eh
springs are all 'springy'. Imo (many differing views on the net) cut springs are stiffer, or so the maths would suggest.

It's been my pride and joy for some years now. It's a car that makes people happy just by looking at it Actually, I had had it only for few hours (I just bought it from my customer to whom I built it) when a Norwegian business man, quite hangoverish one, asked for a lift in it. I took him to the city centre to recover and boy'oh'boy was he having great time. He opened the window, put his elbow out, turned the volume up on the stereo and enjoyed himself fully. He said, this is better than his Porche back in home
No need to say, I laughed quite hard
