Coil Overs

I was just wondering if there is anyone here who has fitted coil overs in their FTO. I am thinking of purchasing them, so I can adjust the ride height whenever I like. I think having a FTO sitting on its arse at the Auto Salon will look crazy. Any advice on cost and troubles will be a great help..

how much have u got to spend? if you are referring to height and damper adjustable suspension kits, then you're looking around at least $2400 upwards, and that's before we get into the Jap brands!

if you're really keen, you could fit hydraulics instead hehe! :twisted:

I was cosidering (Pimping) hydraulics on my car, but I dont think they are legal. At the moment I just want a rough idea on how much coil overs cost, and which ones to go for...
