ivan Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I've got RS*R lowering springs on which I want to swap for stock ones. Does anyone know if I can use NA springs on my VVTi JSpec TT please? I have a set available to me but am not sure if they're OK to fit. (And if not, does anyone in the South have a TT set that they don't want anymore?) Cheers all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come your 'downgrading' or is it due to cost you want NA's? May be a safety issue involved there, though I'm no expert Go for Bilstein's off a TT as a minimum I'd have thought?

JustGav Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I've got a set of TT springs on my NA currently which I will be removing in the near future, if you want to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chumpalot Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I'll also have a set of stock TT springs for sale shortly. Just ordered some Teins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I have stock, used, VVTi springs for sale, the N/A ones will be too soft, especially the fronts. VVti springs are a different rate to none VVTi, a bit stiffer. They work really well on standard European Bilstein shocks, and I can do a superb price on those, at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 Thanks all. The reason I'm "downgrading" is that the RS*Rs are just too low for my car now I've got an aftermarket (Miami-GT) exhaust. The clearance under the 2nd cat is down to about 2.5" and I seem to be scraping it on just about every car park entrance these days. The ride is also "rather stiff" for my back these days too. And as I'm living on my Army pension at the moment, cost is a BIG issue (although I should hopefully recoup something if I sell the RS*Rs).

You can ajdust the ride height for comfort and clearance. They're not cheap but are a good investment, maybe worth bearing in mind if you become very solvent i.e; win the lottery Lx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted September 18, 2007 Author Share Posted September 18, 2007 Cheers Maz, I'll bear them in mind but you're a bit far away to collect. Any idea what the postage might be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
