   The drop won't be 60mm as the springs work with the weight of the engine. A 1.0 saxo engine will weigh less than a vtr/s engine so it probably won't drop it 60mm.

   I would have said it will be about 30mm-40 max.
   
   Why not just buy springs for a 1.1 instead of making all these threads.

   It'll lower 50mm, I guarentee it. Check the product numbers for different springs etc. Spax VT 60mm and 1.1 50mm have same product number... it's not a coincidence, it's the same product
   
   My car is down 50mm on said springs (plus shocks)
