to be honest I don't know what height it is :spoton: I just went into pedders and said give me the lowest springs you got :spoton: he did mention that there were two types.. the first height he said that the height would drop to just above the wheel, and the second (which I opted for) is just over the wheel. He said its dropped about 1 and 3/4 inches. So I'd say go for the lowest one. Certain driveways can be a pain in the ass, but otherwise its pretty good.

Why the Expensive Daewoo pic and why lowering ya car??

What ???? :laughing:

If you are refering to the cv8-z pics ,I was trying to show how I wanted the tyre/rim clearance.

Reason for lowering is it looks like a truck and sways all over the road,I love a hard suspended car when I hit a bump I like to feel it instead of floating.

cv8z... get the Kings Springs and the swaybar and you won't look back...

And you'll have to change your username now too... :msm:

You didn't trade in your CV8Z for under 30k did you?

If you have the money to do it... get the Whiteline 27mm front swaybar as well... it makes a huge difference compared to the stock car... the car feels smaller, and turns in and holds the line heaps better... should cost around $140.00 for swaybar and only takes 20mins to fit...

Jack, where's a good place to buy the swaybars from? I'm in Sydney but looking for any place online to compare with the Whiteline website. Autospeed used to sell Whiteline gear cheaper that the Whiteline website, but alas no more.. :spoton: Any other online place that would sell the swaybars at a discoount?

Also I read some other posts about having the rear 22mm Whiteline bar also. Any reason why you didn't get it as well, or is it on you list? :msm: Anyone installed the rear bar themselves easily? Just wondering if exhaust or anything needs to be removed. Cheers. :spoton:

Ben

PS hmmm had these handy as it's what I'm interested in, may be useful info for anyone else! :spoton:

Whiteline Front Swaybar 27mm - #BFF21

Whiteline Rear Swaybar 22mm - #BFR42

na na na not far off though $52 000

Low but had to get out of it as was completly useless as a family car and fuel was getting tight on the budget

I told the misses that the cv8-z was cheap on fuel when I bought it :spoton:

But she found out that it was a bull sh*t story

Now she is watching very closely why and what im spending on this new animal :spoton::msm:

ps: how do I change my username (I didnt know it was possiable)

Thanks guys for ALL of your help so far ,even though I ask the same question over and over

That's alright then... I thought you got in the 20's for it after the post about what you paid... but that must have been for the T...

Just PM one of the Moderators and with what you want your new username to be and they can change it...

Try XR6Tute, he can do it for you...
