Are these progressive or just hard/hard.

well although not called progressive..

duncan from tokyo express assures me they are the same etc..

uprated 30% and lowered 30mm but still supple enough for the bumps and good enough for the bends..

we will see! he has had some great feedback he says..

For the amount of trackdays you do Dan you should've bought coilovers not 'lowering' springs.

TRUNG :x :x :x


I know but a cheaper way of getting it better for now as funds need to be spent on the house!

They arrived today and look sweet so just gotta get them fitted now.

I'm also keen to know as I'm ready to splash out and think coilovers might be an overkill for me.

£147..... :shock: ......I hope thats for yours and Sikboys together? Did you get the permanant stuff or the Waxoyl??

I got a quote for the Waxoyl (which I'll get done once a year) for £50. And I thought that was excessive!!

dont say that!

:shock: it was per car....

job involves...1st day, car on ramps and fully cleaned and hosed/washed underside etc...then left to dry overnight..

2nd day..car undersealed with spray on mix of waxoil and summat else so lasts longer yet remains flexible. all box sections filled with thin tube with holes on so sprays 360 etc..inside em..

seems a good job and better than a paint brush and underseal eh..
