Finally got around to lowering the car today well I say lowered one corner only.Started at the rear near side a little bit of a pig but successfully dropped by 20 turns ,moved around to the other side bottom nut no problem top one moved about 5 turns than 2 hours later hadnt got it to move any further by this time the light was going and the nut was looking a little worse for ware ,so gave up . Need to order a new nut and cut the old one off now . I'll have a go at the fronts tomorrow hopefully a little bit more sucsessfull .one of those jobs you start but wish you hadn't.

Bumping this again
Jon - how did you get on with the lowering project?
It looks so good I'm thinking of getting mine done. Has it made a difference to the ride quality and how does get on with speed bumps?

A little to soon to know about the ride but speed bumps are not a problem , it does seem to handle better and feel more planted though .
i couldnt get spring compressors so used jubilee clips but be carefull!!
exactly what i thought , your lucky you did nt get a spring in the face !
