I want to keep her standard ish, gonna get her lowered when I have the £££

[James.G]

lovely exaple.. looks spotless.

i wouldnt go too low mind, just like 30mm would look spot on ;)

[NikkiGTi]

lovely! i love those lights :)

[elinchick]

Thanks peeps :) agree with you about the lowering James, wouldnt want to go too low. As for spotless- she's not as spotless as she was in these pics :( flamin selfish *beeping* *beeps* have opened their doors against her >:( and some chav stole my dust caps yesturday >:(

[James.G]

stole your dust caps! whats the point lol... scum!

yeah sooo annoying, i have like 2 dings in my door, you can only just see them in some light, still drives me nuts tho.

[N9KKC]

Tidy, get it lowered though!

[Swag]

loving the second pic remeber seeing it some where else, also that a magnex ??? if so whats the sound like?

[Fuzzy Orange]

Love your car ellin

The projectors work well with the spots, the exhaust is lovely and well suited
Wheels look awesome

Its brilliant how just little mods can really make a quiky look tidy!!

[pugginquik]

Tis a real nice example, love the cyclones which will look even smarter when lowered.

Nice ride 8)

[Dan]

Looks MINT! Very clean quiksilver.

Drop it like its hot!

[elinchick]

Oh thanks everyone for the lovely comments ;D :-* She's almost just how I want her now.

Agree with you tho on the lowering. Wasnt bothered before, but the more I see all ur bootiful quikies n GTI's I think she looks like some monster truck. Would you guys agree with dropping 30mm or more?

Swag- yeah its a full magnex zorst. Doesnt make a huge amount of noise, but purrrs nicely.

[NikkiGTi]

i gotta magnex too, just the right note ;D

id say 30mm, maybe 40mm

[elinchick]

id say 30mm, maybe 40mm


Thanx hun! Ur gti lowered? Yeah the magnex sounds just right- I used to think it was too quiet but it doesnt help that my gearbox is making that awful whining noise. :-[

[NikkiGTi]

no its not yet chick

why is ur gearbox doing that ???

[elinchick]

no its not yet chick

why is ur gearbox doing that ???


Its dying! Souds like I got a cat under the bonnet! U got piccies of urs?

[Rallye James]

Cyclones and an exhaust like that - Perfect mods! :D

Like the number plate and the headlights too - A great Quiky :)

[NikkiGTi]

its in the GTi section, not got any pics with the exhaust yet tho :)

[Dan C]

i love cyclones on quiksilvers! if only i had enough to buy some...ill keep dreaming. Nice car anyway ellin

[Quiksilver_TR]

Looking brill. Look even better when lowered over them cyclones

[Tony]

Looking good

[Dargs]

Looking kool as always chick ;D, lowering will complete the package nicely i reckon ;)

[Raz]

Need your wheels......... ;D looks great!

Raz

[Luke]

As its been said on QPC hundres of times, cyclones look the dogs gonads! Really nice example you got there!

[elinchick]

Thanks peeps ;D How low should I go? Also if anyone could recommend me a place for lowering gimme a tinkle

[James.G]

well buy springs first... eibach pros... www.Kam-racing.co.uk :) 20-30mm drop.
which i think would be perfect for your car ;)
as for lowering, i would say £100 for both fitting the springs and lowering the torsion bar.
not sure about places down in the sea of swan... im sure hugh will know of someone..

[James.G]

heres the 45-50mm.. sportlines.
http://www.kam-racing.com/shop/catalog/product_info.php/manufacturers_id/28/products_id/30

and these are the pros..
http://www.kam-racing.com/shop/catalog/product_info.php/manufacturers_id/28/products_id/28

iv got the sportlines fitted, will get a pic up for you if you want :)

[danvilla2]

Without a doubt one of the nicest quikys ive seen, when its lowered it will look absoloutely mint!!

[hugh_106]

Are those sportlines actually gona lower a Quiky that much though? (Just thinking that might be GTi height, which is different).

As for lowering places in South Wales, you've got me stumped. I know a mate who can do it but not sure if he does stuff like that all the time if you know what I mean. It seems to be soooo hard finding places who'll lower a Pug because of the Torsion bar.

Elin, do you want it done the 'splines' or 'mm' way and do you want uprated shocks as well?

[James.G]

yeah they are GTI measurements, but it doesnt make that much of a different.
my 50mm ones are pretty much 50mm...

a local garge did mine for me. :)

[hugh_106]

You got bricks in your engine bay!?! Mine were GTi ones and were grossly under-lowered. You got any pics so I can see what yours looks like?

[James.G]

will get you one up tomoz.. :)

[James.G]

found one...

this was back in October just after i had them fitted.

they have settled down abit, but prretty much it.

[hugh_106]

Is the back there done by splines or mm?

[rich106quiksilver]

Said it before and i'll say it again, great Pug Elin :)

[hartmj]

ELIN aint seen ya about for ages!! nice to have you back!
matt

[elinchick]

Thanks again for the lovely comments guys n gals :-*
Yeah Im back ;D lost interest in QPC in the end and what can I say - this forum is buzzing, just cant keep up with posts - and Ive got LOADS of uni work to do ahhhhhhhhh!
Thanks for your help James G and Hugh- yeah I need to get some springs sorted, looking to get her dropped around 30mm. Im a bit concerned about lowering her as the roads where I live are TERRIBLE, pot holes everywhere! Do you think dropping her 30mm will damage her?
As for "doing it the splines or mm way" its all double dutch to me :-[

[Shell]

love the lights huni they really suit 106 especially quiki's ;)

the exhaust suits well ive never seen one like it on a quiki but its smart

i don't think droppin it 30 is bad cause mine is 40 and i live in the countryside with loads of bumps dips and cow shit, but also on the road i use to get to ste's i have to swerve all over the road to avoid the potholes so i don't damage the car 8)

[James]

elin i got a quote for you , il pm you it and they lower it by taking the mm way not by clicks ;)
