    lowered mk2

    I posted a while ago in my first post.
    So my problem is. My car is too low to pass the roadworthy and i cant find standard springs to raise it back up to legal height. does anyone know of any coilovers that will go up to 325mm front and 340mm at the rears..

    cheers...

    The point of coilovers is that they are height adjustable. I would be a little shocked if a set of coilovers existed that didn't allow you to adjust to standard ride height.

    I dunno the law about it in tas but I asume its similar to the laws in Vic. To pass roadworthy you dont have to have standard hight but the lowest point on the car has to be above 100mm. Most coilovers will be able to raise the car in to space from what i have seen so geting it to legal limit shouldnt be a proble.

    yeah that would be awesome if i could. it has aftermarket bilstein shocks and springs so hopefully the stock springs will raise it up to legal.
    how much you want for them.
