10 cm is too high! Isn't it?

symonevans · 04-07-2008, 12:33

Dont you mean mm? Or do you want it to be a monster truck?

stephenSF · 06-07-2008, 13:04

Raise it? It already looks like its on stilts. I want to lower mine. Not so I can thrash it round corners but so it doesn't look like a bigfoot hatchback.

paulorcrs · 06-07-2008, 14:31

Yep, i mean 10cm, kind of Audi AllRoad, how to technical?, new springs?, new what?
Thanks

Will you then be looking for a remap down to, say, about 10bhp? Then maybe swapping out the lightbulbs for candles? Some wooden rims perhaps? And how about an in-dash grammaphone with storage for 78rpm disks?

erm, why out of interest?

dan1 · 07-07-2008, 18:46

It will fall over!!!!!!!!! lol

dan1 · 07-07-2008, 18:47

i would fit some wheels to the roof as a safety measure!!! ;-)

The OP is from Portugal, maybe the area he/she is from has some poor roads.

paulorcrs · 07-07-2008, 19:48

Just bla bla bla, keep the jockes for the proper post, by the way the forum should have a post for jockes, so you wouldn t fill others with crap, eheh

Any moderator around here to do is job? Ahn

Get off your high horse-uh-fabia

Decron · 08-07-2008, 00:25

In all seriousness...

You will not raise the suspension in you Mk2 Fabia by 10-20cms there isn't enough travel or room in the geometry to do this as well as making thr car extremely unstable even if you could physically do it, I mean you are talking about adding the height of a CD to the car...

If your talking about 10-20mm then that could be done with spacers or even new springs (As spacers may alter the spring rates outside a decent tolerence).

Maybe an easier way to get 10-20mm is to fit higher profile tyres? You would have to check the clearences on the arches and it would put your speedo out a bit but it coulg get you where you want to go,

paulorcrs · 08-07-2008, 11:16

Thanks Decron, that was the kind of answer i was looking for

, not does ridicules answers.

This was my first post, and i thought this was a serious forum, probably it is, but in 12 post, just 1 is to help and 10 bad jokes, i was wondering if in posts with 10 pages you just get 1 page with help, the rest is crap, eheh

I´m going to write a post called Jokes in each Skoda model, so you guys don t fill the other posts with that crap, when people make a research will not get all that crap. Stay focus

To the others, get a life!

It's like going onto a decorating forum and asking 'How do i paint my house in tartan'. If you ask what is quite frankly a bit of a silly question expect some humour in your answers. Coming in here and acting like an **** isn't going to do you any favours.

Talk to the hand, from now on, i just quote on msg with some content, and by the way searching on your posts, half of them are jokes or funny, are you on the contest for more posts. THE END
