How many wheels you got mate? Wish I could afford to have a choice of wheels style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Both sets will look cool when it's dropped on the coillies!

Next week is the VW Summernights BBQ!! Come to that! border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> I'm off there with the Section 5 chaps. There's normally a Section 5 meet last Sunday of the month at the Baltic which is a good laugh.

Thanks, that would be me! I go that way to and from work, give us a flash next time you see me style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

This is gonna look very tidy when it's done! If you want a de-badged front grille, i've got an unused one going cheap.

Thanks style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> I've got some highsports on the way, so they'll get fitted next week. Anyone had any sump-to-earth issues on the Lupo when it's really low?

Mine did a 20.2 1/4 mile. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Ok overtaking on single lane roads isn't too easy, it just takes a bit of planning!!!

Spigots are on my to-do list. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> It drives fine as it is, but I still want to get some. I'd like some coillies before GTi International, looking at FK Highsports, how low can you go on them? Thanks for the positive comments style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Haven't posted in a while, the car's changed a bit. border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> Coilovers, exhaust and an engine swap up next...

Looks good on the LS', and it'll look ace when it's dropped!

Ah, the offset of the wheels is Et28. The arches may need a bit of tweaking (involving Mr Hammer). I'm not sure whether the actual rolling radius is going to change much on a 7x15" wheel and a 45 profile tyre, possibly with a 40 profile or a bit of a stretch it would be the same as the stock steels. I would like it lower simply because I saw a pic of it from behind, and it looks like a 4x4, even with a 40mm drop. I've looked at the Jamex kits as they seem to be quite popular, and I haven't heard anything bad about them - yet! Thanks for your replies. Liam

Hi folks My lupo is currently on a 60/40mm spring kit, sits ok but must be lower. Sooo... have a few q's - probably been answered before but hey ho. 1. I'm on tight budget and need to go as low as possible. I've seen the Jamex coilovers for around 270 quid, they only go down to 80mm, anyone got any pics of cars lowered this far? Will it be low enough? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> 2. Any recommendations on what coilovers to get? Obviously young = tight budget, not arsed on ride quality, just needs to be low. Oh, it should be sitting on 7x15's in the next few weeks (with 45 profile tyres), what would be a good drop to avoid scrubbage issues? Thanks in advance...

My 1.0 Lupo, lowered 60/40mm, took the rubstrips off and some german plates. border="0" class="linked-image" /> border="0" class="linked-image" /> Only other plans are to go lower and smoother. Oh, and some alloys, any suggestions? Cheers. Liam

Hi folks Just bought a 1.0 Lupo so I thought i'd sign up and say hello. It's currently bog standard, but it'll get a few alterations before the shows next year. Is there any meets up in the North East by the way? Cheers. Liam
