I havent checked this thread for a while, is comin along very nice! i was gonna buy an SR in that colour a few months ago unfortunatly dad decided against it
unlucky mate!!!!
cheers for comment....im very pleased with out come and the moment and still more to be fitted hopefully soon :laugh:
right well
suspension was fitted yesterday and i couldnt believe how
low it looked
......i never thought it would look like it does!
well i picked it up and went from garage back home down the dual carriage way.....my mate came with me in his punto HGT!!! was a right laugh driving home cause the car was more STABLE!!! got back home and i took my mate out in it!! like always....hes always been impressed bout the power of the car (sorry for saying that!) but he couldnt believe the handling of it now!!!
corners are no problem now which is scary to be honest....i know that sounds really silly or what eve but i never thought that it would grip as much as it does round bends! this was why i asked so many questions about suspension before i went ahead and got it fitted etc.
reason being:
1. i wanted less body roll and better handling
2. comfier ride
however i knew that wasnt going to be easy to achieve this, because suspension Compromises for one or the other....not really both unless you can adapt / adjust them!!!
even though cornering is uprated and more fun.......the comfy ride has gone :down: now im not really complaining.....because to me it feels like im in a
GO-KART which is fun for me but i was worried about my passangers!!!
now i must admit its not all the time u feel every bump in the road....which is quite nice to have a break from "BUMP, BUMP, BUMP......smooth" lol....so its not every second you feel every bump ever created by
CORMACK!!
i took 3 of my mates out last night (individually) so dont ask how much petrol i spent lol :blush: .....when i asked them how it was they all said nearly the same thing
"its alot better".....which surprised me.
i asked them about how COMFY the ride is as a passager and all 3 said the same again "dont worry about passangers, ull be the one driving it......its up to you whether to keep it or not".
i still need more time deciding whether i will keep it or not....yep that sounds silly again i know and then some of you are asking your selves why would i lower the car to only worry about passangers.....well i am and that just me!!!!
pics to follow shortly once ive transfered them off phone :laugh:
cheers
