Any of you guys that have fitted up H&R springs noticed any drop in height after a few months? I'm guessing that the progressive rate design of these springs will result in some additional settling after a while.

Hi Clip,
I installed the H&R ones and didn't notice a difference after some months after, I never took measures to be honest if there was a chance of some mm's after using them.
I did measures :) was about a further 5mm drop after 3 months. As it stands now its 35mm lower at the front and 39mm at the rear.
Of course you did :biggrin: - thanks, I thought they might.Quote:

yeh mate, fitted up last week. Very happy :biggrin: Surprised at how well it rides, better than the stocks over the short bumps. Certainly flattened out the cornering and is more flickable to boot.Quote:

Certainly improves the ride, I noticed the steering was a lot sharper too :) I think a big fat Nuespeed rear swaybar may be in order though :D
Where did you get it fitted John?Quote:

The Carbonio is a very nice piece of kit but I just can't justify that kind of money.
Have also been thinking about an exhaust but worried about getting a drony, loud POS so I'll have to think about it.
Yep, it is a bit pricey, I'm also tossing up between a few other things so it can wait until I know for sure I want it or am happy with what I've got now.Quote:

I have a nice exhaust on the RAV4 and have to admit that the drone (even though its not too loud) can get to you on long distances .....
For that very reason will I only do a downpipe on the Tig if and when it becomes available.
