I have these shocks in my car and they are very impressive. The car sits nicer, handles soooo much better and can be fine tuned to your own preference. Definitely a great investment!!!

It cost me just under $1900 by the time they were shipped to me

They come as a kit with shocks and springs. They are $2200 brand new from Shockworks. They are 50mm lower springs with different spring rates. I'm not sure of the technical details exactly. My rear has only lowered by 10mm or so I think. I will need to measure to be give you an exact figure. The car hasn't been adjusted yet either so this may change too once adjusted to suit the type of driving I do and the look I am after. ;-) I have only fitted my rear ones so far and they have stiffened the car quite noticeably in comparison to my 3 year old standard setup. That is with the shocks still set to the softest setting too. So far I am very impressed.

Yes I did. How did you know? Lol

Best post ever. I can continue installing these now as I was also confused by the rear spring setup. LOL

Hi Admin, I am trying to help a friend setup his forum account. It looks like the activation wasn’t successful even though we clicked on the link that was sent his email account and activated his fordxr6turbo account. I also tried to resend the activation but he never received the 2nd activation email. Each time he logs into the page, all he can see is a message that says "Sorry, you don't have permission for that." Can you please help get his account setup correctly or maybe even delete the account so he can try re-create it again? His username is andian I have created a support ticket under my account but haven't got a response as yet. I have also emailed support but the email system isn't working and says I need to whiltelist my email. I whitelisted my email to support but then I got another rejection notice. Kind Regards, Darren

Do you have a link to the adapter?

Is there also a difference with the flapper port size between the 2? What size is the standard FG F6 Flapper port?

Been waiting on this one. Yay for ZF

Could be: flat battery blown fuse sticky or broken relay car is in a gear other than P or N

I was just told on AFF that Shannons has been bought out by Suncorp. Maybe this problem has all come about because Shannons is going to be another normal insurance company and not so much of an enthusiasts insurance company anymore.

Yeah that is true. Still better than nothing though. Shannons are "Australia Alliance Insurance Companies" which is also known as "Australian Pensioners Insurance" according to my home loan documents.

I actually have video surveillance around my house. There is a camera on the car in the driveway. I can watch the car on the any of the TV’s. LOL. Even if someone did steal the car from there, I would have video of them doing it and be able to find them from that (hopefully). Not as good as a garage, gates or whatever else but still better than nothing. Still pretty annoyed they cancelled my insurance because they stuffed up at their end not once but at least 4 times. Stooges. Upside is though, turns out I can get insurance cheaper through other companies. I will move my house and contents insurance from them as well.

UPDATE: I have been talking to the manager at Shannons and the Insurance ombudsman to find a resolution to the problem. The ombudsman has said that I would still be able to make a claim in the event of theft from my home. The manager keeps telling me that I would "most likely" be denied the claim and cannot guarantee the integrity of my insurance. The ombudsman has asked for a written letter from Shannons on the status of my insurance to have in writing a yes or no answer on whether I can claim theft from my house. It seems that as I have now decided to take this issue to the ombudsman, Shannons has decided to cancel my insurance. It doesn't seem to be very fair that I pay premiums for insurance to find out that I have not been covered and will not be covered for theft from my home as a result of poor decisions from Shannons staff. I have started to lodge formal complaints and am waiting to hear back from the regional manager from Shannons in regards to this issue. I am so glad I found all this out before anything really bad happened. I will keep you all informed and in the meantime, check that you're covered too.
