b1g_dav3 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 As long as it isn't a diesel it'll be fine. No new shocks needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartynS Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'm guessing due to the extra weight of a diesel engine? Though I may be wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b1g_dav3 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yeah, the extra weight would send the car down another few mm and really put the ride and characteristics off. People don't realise what a difference 5mm can make, I have coilovers on my fez and it makes a lot of difference when I lower it an extra few mm.
