I didn't vote for this, so I reserve the right to moan as much as I like :-)

I'm a bit confused by the nomenclature they're using...I can't see any rear inners, just rear outers. And when it says front lower outer rearward...ok I'm just confused.

I'm planning to replace all my bushes this winter and have decided to go with rubber over Poly. I've seen a kit on Zcarsource but it looks a bit pricey to me. Anyone know where else I can start looking? A search has just turned up very old answers and dead-ends!

I got very excited when I saw the air intake, but no, left hand only, as per [emoji22] Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

The indicator problem is almost certainly the switch needing a clean, it's a simple job, I managed it successfully last week! There's even a video on YouTube of someone showing the process. Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

So it looks like our Euro spec stock springs would have been considered lowering springs by US standards, having a free length about 80mm shorter. That might explain why I've seen some UK owners complaining that Eibach springs didn't give them the drop they were expecting. Sent from my moto...

Hang on, I've read on other threads that people are using BC coilovers with spring rates recommended for 'best balance of performance and comfort' that are, according to that table, double the stock rates. Can that be right? Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

I'm reading it as 2.18 front and 2.5 rear for Euro spec, am I reading it wrong? Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

Well, yes, I'm thin now I'll have you know! But that's not where it came from, it's a very long and convoluted origin story. Suffice to say I had a friend who loved giving people nicknames that made sense to him, and mine stuck. Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

My name's actually Steve [emoji13] Skin was a nickname when I was a kid, don't ask me to explain where the Jim part came from, I don't think I understand it myself really [emoji23] Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

Have you seen this? There's a hell of a lot of information here, some of it must be relevant! https://www.jdmjunkies.ch/wordpress/2017-01-19/240z-the-ultimate-guide-to-factory-suspension-and-options/ Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

I had a feeling that would be the case [emoji4] Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

@AliK I noticed in another thread that you're using the Koni adjustables from MSA, what springs are you using with those? Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

That's great, thanks! Are the springs the same front and back? Meaning, could I send them a rear spring and say 'I'd like four of those please'? Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk

Wonderful, I've had two whole weeks of quality motoring since the last thing that broke got mended. So are there any options for springs beside the Eibach jobbies? I really don't think I can afford to shell out for coilovers at the moment [emoji853] Sent from my moto g(7) play using Tapatalk
