Suspension Upgrade (lowering)
Suspension Upgrade (lowering)
Thanks
I've ordered some 50mm lowering springs, I would like to know is there anything else I should consider getting changed, I've already been told about lower ball joints. Would it be a good idea to buy new bushes? Car coming up to 70,000 I've had it since 44,000 and never changed them. Just after some useful advice from people who have gone down that route before.
Thanks

Might as well if your doing bottom ball joints.

Haven't got uprated roll bars, most likely will go down that route in the future. Yep I will be getting it aligned once fitted. Also someone has being saying that 50mm springs will greatly shorten the life of the standard shocks. So that being said what decent shocks are out there for the is200 I've seen long and bilstein.
If I were to do another is200 I'd go Meister r coilovers again. They were absolutely fantastic coupled with TRD roll bars. Even more comfortable than standard when set to soft.
