   Im looking to buy 40mm lowering springs off ebay, these ones i think - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FK-LOWERING-SP...item335ca55b97
   
   Well it says there for vtr/vts so im wondering now if they would fit my 1.0litre? Do i need ones specific for a 1litre or?

   i think the vt sits 10mm lowering than a flat arch, so i may be wrong, buut it may lower yours 50

   well i dont think it would lower it another 10mm on top of what they say it will lower i think it would just look 10mm lower that what is ment to be but i could be wrong so dont quote me on that

   Yeah the VTR/VTS models sit lower than other models at standard height, for example the springs i have on mine are 55mm but if used on a 1.0 etc it would the car round 50mm.
