i originally took em out for moar lows why do you wanna put em in?

just get a 2nd hand set of coilovers or something..

helper springs compress your coilover springs so they dont fly around when you lift a wheel off the ground haha. People put them in so they can go more low without springs popping out of the seats!

I need to put some in, cause any lower and will pop out.

Paid a pretty penny for my new Bilstein shocks, which are far better than any chinese coilovers. Would be silly to bin them for more lows. Need to just spend more money to convert them to coilovers ~_~

East Bear

A trader used to sell em on here, but only had the beige/tan color which I wasn't a fan of, black was pretty rare...think they were something like $800 a piece back in the day + rails...I had Bride rails on em which aren't cheap either

Thought you'd be keen as mustard for footy training if you're so into running..

It's more the session times I can't deal with, rather than cbfs about training. Work sometimes holds me back late and Tues + Thurs are gym nights for me. Thirds is more about punch ons than footy though!

lol they pop out but they'll go back in place during/after compression. they were a bit noisy after i took em out but it dropped the height another inch or so.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
