Get a vt* kit

20th April 2006, 18:56

Lower it.

Why make your 1.1 look like a VT* when there are barely any decent kitted 1.1s about.

20th April 2006, 22:30

well al make mine the first decent kitted one then!

21st April 2006, 19:23

go for the vt kit and try to mould the arches to the body, golf style, you'll have more a than decent vt look like! i'm doing it too

21st April 2006, 23:09

sweet get back with how it goes, iv never seen the VT* kit moulded in

21st April 2006, 23:36

will have pics when i take it from the body workshop by the end of april. there's a thread dealing bout vt* kits, there's some nice pics, you can have a better idea, anyways its sexy!

22nd April 2006, 16:35

i'd lower it first mate then save up for the vt kit and do that after lowering it

22nd April 2006, 20:41

maybe but if the money's flowing why not?

22nd April 2006, 23:28

i could lower it more if i got kit first though couldnt i? because arches get cut back when VT kit is fitted? allowing me to go lower?

22nd April 2006, 23:33

get it lowerd

23rd April 2006, 06:46

slamm it

23rd April 2006, 06:49

Fit the kit before you lower it! ull start to shred the outside of your tyres on the lip of your rear arches if you lower it first

23rd April 2006, 20:39

slam it!

23rd April 2006, 20:53

true fit the kit first and then lower it afterwards, to have an idea how much to go for...

23rd April 2006, 22:12

sweet as, it would make sense to get kit first a reckon

24th April 2006, 01:55

if you sort your arches when you get it lowered then it wont make much difference

how low are you wanting to go anyway mate?

24th April 2006, 04:35

am thinking 40mm front and 60mm rear, but im not sure yet, had a quote of £100 for front cobra setup, but need to find sm1 2 do my rear still

24th April 2006, 20:54

does anybody have a similar cobra setup? or any can anybody reccommend any decent springs for a 1.1

cheers

24th April 2006, 21:35

should go first for wheels man
if you don't have them yet
otherwise you should get the kit

24th April 2006, 21:38
