Thanks Dan, no its not too low but the more I look at it, it is quite a noticeable drop which is a nice change. Yeah motobuild springs. To be honest they don't really feel much different to the standard springs, maybe everso slightly stiffer.

Well it may drop a couple more like you say once the cars settled itself, I think it now sets the wheels off more than when standard height.

I really am going to have to get my coilovers on as I miss how my old car looked when lowered compared to the 4x4 esque ride height!

Cheers Brett, I'm glad it's done but it was far from straight forward. Bolts had seized on most bits at the rear and bushes were spinning and not coming undone so it wasn't a pleasant experience when with limited supplies but Darren my mate who was helping is very good with awkward parts lol. Plus I think as its not his car he wasn't so worried about using more force where I was a bit reserved.
First impressions though are great, I can see why people do get the coilovers when you can go as low & lower and then set it up fully. I would probably only go 5 - 10 mm lower if I did as it'd start to eat the tyres.
Cheers for the bit though mate, wouldn't be sounding or looking like it does now without them
