Shak Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 All you have done to the suspension is drop 40mm on Eibach springs (using standard shocks)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shak Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 They give the perfect ride height (not a big fan of cars dropped too low), they stiff and do they clear speed bumps no problem? I have a 6 month old so I don't want to make the ride too uncomfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 Pretty bumpy to be fair. But ok if you take it easy. Clearence ok. Occasional exhaust scrape on those funny pyramid speed bumps.I also got young baby and he loves it. Falls sleep and car is hella loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 i hate to be a party pooper but dont they come standerd with 169 bhp so you done all that work and you only got 3.5 more bhpwas there not a cheaper way to get that amount of power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicturbo79 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 All the standard mb6 we have ran are 165-167 bhp , exhausts and decat are making around 5bhp and cheap intakes are not really making any odds , But we have seen 10 bhp for a real good filter , the best mb6 we have had on was 183 bhp . to get the best from any mods you need to get the car mapped to the mods you have , we are looking into getting set up to map mb6's but that will be a few months away and ill do some tests on my brothers mb6 and ill post the results as we go.

scottravenhill Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Imagine noisy diff, they just replace the bearings.What was the cost of repair out of interest. Wouldnt mind getting the s9b repaired, noisy input bearing.Only just saw this question here sorry. 600 fitted with new clutch, don't think they charged me much for labour to remove refit as he said 450 for the box, 150 clutch.
