Picture Request

[Error404]

Has anyone got pictures of a coupe running H&R front VA springs on front AND rear of a coupe?
Mine seems to have settled loads and now looks too low at the rear

mine is at the moment but they are avant VA's Light has gone for today but I will try and get a photo in the monring. A&se is still in the air on mine, i wish they would sink a bit lower....original VA/HA coupe setup looked better in my opinion, however handling is good on the 4xfronts setup...just not sure its better than H&R VA?HA coupe setup....just different ways to achieve good

loaded up on way to Le Mans last year booting it from a peage:



at the ring with less stuff in the car (looks to me as sitting lower than normally does still though

needs lowering still

Hmm, from Mark's pics in that thread there isn't a massive difference in ride hight - Any slight handling differences don't have any bearing on it for me to be honest, since I run a very stiff rer ARB, I'm interested purely for the stance - I've considered trying a pair of those spring assister things between the top 2 coils (which bind when the car is on its wheels anyway), hoping that might add 10-15mm on the rear ride height which would sort it, but they seem quite a pikey device if I'm honest.. just could do without spending more money on pure vanity



David, this is roughly how mine look when stood still
I just want the front and rear arch gap to be the same

are you running 4 x VA at the moment? If you are i have a set of HA rears if you fancy a go?

wonder where they came from

[s2driveruk]

oh no....your's are all on the car mate those are my old ones just sat in the garage

nope I'm running the proper coupe VA/HA setup, was interested to see if the VAs all round would give me the 10-15mm lift at the rear I need

I know my 7A is lighter than a 3B / ABY but not by more than 20-30kg I'd say when the turbo, wastegate intercooler etc are all weighed in, definately not enough to drop the front of the car by 10mm to match the rear anyway
Besides, the front of mine is about right I think in terms of ride height, don't want it any lower

[s2driveruk]

what rear topmounts you running Alex?

[Acidburn]

sounds like u need coilovers.

And yeah topmounts can make a difference.

My coupe runs VA's front and rear, that is the only way they sold them stateside according to H&R

[s2driveruk]

this one is definately a pearlescent thread

Thanks for the pics dude, really helpful. Out of interest how long had they been fitted when those pics were taken? Looks higher all round

I'm currently running Meyle HD mounts all round
