Paid a good price - not so much at all £180.00 for all 4. Also sold the Nimrods so they cost me less in the end - taking that into account.

Happy days.
Just ordered a K&N Air panel filter, and P-313
Crystal Black Side Repeaters
from Ecosse.

I have been thinking of dropping the front end by 32mm or so - not back. Had heard over steer is caused by lowering front & the back end. So dunno!?

Could look a bit odd just lowered at front end. Anyone got advice please? Be v much appreciated. Taa

not sure exactly, just kept fiddling till it was where i liked it. harry reckoned about 50-60mm. have a look at the w.i.p thread in my sig, can see how it sits.

Nice work Smile

With the handling - lowering the front more than the back will result in less oversteer (in general), which is why a lot go for the nose down effect.

Thanks Jacko27.

Here's a quick list of stuff Ive done since I bought Pug 206 GTi March last year:
> New Timing belt & water pump kit
> New Off Side and NSide wishbones & drop rod links
> New Alluiminum Petrol Cap Sports 1
> New Bosch Fuel Filter
> New Filters, oil, pollen and K& N Air filter
> O.Z Alloys x 4 & Yoko S-Drives
> Oil Change (Due again this week with Sump washer)
> New Battery
> New Ultra Sonic Interior Sensors
> New Raidater & coolant
> Re-furb fuel Injectors & cleaned
> Cleaned all & replaced some of the inlet breather hoses
> Re-furbed the Carb Inlet

Still stuff to do & put on:
< Lower the front by 32mm maybe more
< Re-furb calipers & paint black
< new Discs Tarox or other (brakes)
< Green Stuff pads (brakes)
< Sp front mesh grill and bonnet vent
< Replace OEM HUnit for a Pioneer Iphone friendly/SD card/USB

Lol, don't think anything else would need doing after that. Fingers X'd
