180 lowering springs.

Craig-ZS180 · 06-12-12, 08:11 PM

Is anyone looking to or thinking of selling any proper lowering springs for a 180 model as my parents have decided to treat me for Xmas. I thought id ask on here first before going straight to the motobuild ones on the bay.
If anyone has would be interested to know.

Also on another note I've been looking at the cybox stainless cat back for my hatch, all seems good looks wise but I've looked all through YouTube to see if there was any videos of this system on a 180 but all I can fine are ones on the zr's. My question is does or has anyone here have any experience with these systems as to the quality, fitment & noise of them when fitted?
Also next part of the possible treat lol.
Any help would be appreciated.

Cybox are essentially Peco backboxes and they tend to be good quality

Cheers Luke, I thought I'd heard that somewhere before that they are who used to be peco.? Seen a cat back stainless with a 4" slash cut although would've preferred outwardly rolled but ive been quoted by a local long life specialist over £400 for the same system. I know it'll be designed to the car and may give a better increase but I cannot justify £400 + on exhaust even if being bought for me. They can't go that expensive though.

Think I've seen that on Xpower, I thought they were the 1.6 & 1.8 springs on the v6 shocks as an upgrade though when I read it.

Thanks for the heads up though mate.
Bet your glad you didn't sell the ZS now aren't you?

The ones on xpf are for 1.6/1.8, I don't think they'd suit a 180.

That's what I thought, don't think they'd benefit a 180 unfortunately.

Wouldnt have a clue to be honest. They are hard to get hold of but at the same time they would also be a second hand set of springs.
I remember a proper 180 set went last year for about £90 around xmas time, was gutted I missed out lol.
You'd have to give an idea of what you would want Steve as I really dont know buddy
