MK2 180 Finally On Coilovers (UPDATED PICS)
Thankyou mr postman
The seized bolt that took 1 hour 30 mins to get undone
Old shock & spring
First drop off the jack after guessing how low to wind the coilovers lol
Fitted front coilover
Final sitting position for now. Small amount of scrubbing due to lumps in the edges of the front inner arches but soon fixed
Updated Pics 11/11/2010 (after a much needed clean)
Updates 20/11/2010 - Rear adjustable camber arms fitted

Think it looks good, wheels certainly fill the arches.
Think most cars have a siezed nut or two when lowering.
Least it helps having a lift to get underneath.
