Not much, stumbled upon these Coilovers, seem to be a few hundred quid cheaper than normal

they,re all the same eh
Probably as only the fronts are coil overs with adjustable springs and dampers on the rear judging by the pic. Despite the description saying the box will contain 4 true coilovers!
I ordered these and the short wait they promised turned into an 11 week wait so I wouldn't bother!
paint splatter and scream face in the horrible interior, will do the rest in the future when i can be bothered haha

@jordan27 - did they ever say they'd be ready? Sure someone said they had stopped making them or something.
@mcmicra - a few people have seen this before dude, many have tried to get them too. 2 new sets of corsa b coilies for front and 6n's for back would be cheaper anyway.
WDIDT? Swapped my stereos over so I've got aux input now. Fixed the boot/petrol popper (works a charm). Got a super cheap brand new rim and tyre(spare from freshly scrapped facelift), continental sport contact, stuck it on the rear left on my GF's car. The stiff sidewall makes the car stick to road around roundabouts.
Annoying my old old car, now my GF's car handles 10 times better than mine. I'll never again buy budget tyres with softass sidewalls.
I'll just keep them for winter and gets some 15's next year I guess.

Nope, dad told me yesterday that they said two days! No "out of stock" or anything before we bought them and they took the money and then said 5 weeks.
5 weeks went by and then they said another 6.

Drove mine to Silverlake salvage in Southampton. Not for Micra bits though, needed a window regulator for our Stilo.
While in there I spotted a set of 6.5 x 14 BBS Ex E30? the guys wanted 80-100 for them with the balloon tyres they were wearing. I'm not going back there anytime soon but if you are local and fancy them here's yer heads up.

I think I started off with police story too and then the english dubbed project A then operation condor.
thunderbolt wasn't very well known here. I only caught it on telly 1/4 way through and recorded on tape.
That's soon, I had to wait at least a month for my practical!
I'm su
I'm sure demon tweeks do something very similar to an aerospace standard if you have one of there catalogues handy

Looked down at the steering wheel in horror when I heard the elastic band pinging sound from full lock . How do I fix? (Matiz shocks)

Perhaps you forgot the top mount washer bearing thing.
