![]() , but it does'nt work like that in reality!This is my eight step plan and what REALLY happens............ 1. Go ahead and make the purchase whatever it may be, Koni FSD's & Eibach's, new TV, trip away etc. etc. 2. Keep it quiet for as long as possible (this keeps ear ache down to a minimum) 3. As and when the new purchase is about to be delivered or you are about to go on that trip with the lads, start dropping subtle hints. 4. SWMBO finds out about said purchase/up coming trip 5. All hell breaks loose (be prepared for a rocky ride for up to a week) 6. SWMBO calms down (but has still not forgiven you so tread carefully) 7. After around two weeks everything is back to normal. 8. Start planning the next purchase/trip Job done ![]() ![]()

The reason I ask is around where I live is speed hump city ![]() The car park at work however is another matter if I don't go out at an angle it scrapes my front bumper!If it's going to mean stopping every 25 yards because the car is going to be bad over speed bumps then I'm not doing it ![]() If it's going to be ok then I'm in ![]()

| If you get the Koni FSDs and leave the springs alone it will drop very marginally but drive much nicer IMHO, on my Fabia the Eibachs dropped it another inch IIRC.

| If there are FSD / Eibach available then I'll happy add you on. ![]() Just a note for everyone From the 1st of March our retail prices on Koni's will change - they are going up . Koni have this week issued a maximun discount that we can re sell Konis to our customers at from 1st March. This means that this will be last group buy that we can offer at this price. All further sales will be at the new Koni price stated on our webshop on March 1st.

| Can someone please help me out with what is the difference between this kit (shocks and springs) and coilovers? Im not a serious track person but maybe once or twice a year.. I also want a brake job done and if this offer is up my street then maybe I should have it all done. JKM would you be up for this aswell?? cheers |

| Hi Yes we would be happy to do the brake work as well for you. Let me know what you want doing and I will PM a cost to you. The difference between the coilovers and FSD are as follows: Coilovers are ride height adjustable and can be adjusted to suit the height and ride style required - they are a complete unit i.e. spring and damper in one. FSD's are just dampers on there own and are a fixed platform ride height the FSD's have the ability to stiffen the ride when required but do not compromise everyday driving. Hope this Helps Kate

| Yep. The FSDs are designed to IMPROVE comfort over standard, and they stiffen up a treat in the corners... they really are the best of both worlds. There must be more interest in this GB at these prices.... ![]() |

| I can recall the look on Chris' face when he mentioned trying follow me around a slightly tricky bend last Saturday It brought back disturbing memories of when the same happened to me following Steve to a Leathern Bottle meet. Picture the scene - You are following somone for quite some miles and you've kinda tuned in to the space between you and maintain it, adjusting your speed accordingly. Then along comes a nice little right hand bend which doesn't trouble the leading (FSD equipped) car so you follow still keeping the pace and the spacing correct except you realise at around half way through the bend that actually you really aren't going to make it round this corner!!!
