To install Pedders SportsRyder lowered Coil Springs FrontBrand New Rear Leaf Spring Pack with Urethane Bushes alsosupply Camber Castor Kit the complete package suppliedfitted and wheel aligned will cost $1000.00 gst included.Mmmmm...Me might have to do some searching. Was going to be $1200 for a Kings Springs quote I got.
July 28, 200422 yr #34 Author I think the Camber castor kit costs around $260 or more, so that's where a fair bit of expense comes into it.
July 28, 200422 yr #35 New shocks will shy rocket the price too. I will go koni adjustables in a couple of years, or less depends on when I wear these tock shocks out. that's $1200 fitted just for them, and when I get them, I am going down another 12mm cause I can.

How is the front now with it lowered and still having the stock shocks in? Have you noticed the ride quality drop or is it still similar? Konis sound good and for young guys like us it's better to get the ride and look of the car how we want it, then when we turn 25 it's time for power upgrades and hopefully cheaper insurance
July 28, 200422 yr #37 The rides identical. Except for the fact that it goes round corners like its on rails. Oh, and I will be getting power upgrades at the age of 22, he he he.

Konis sound good and for young guys like us it's better to get the ride and look of the car how we want it, then when we turn 25 it's time for power upgrades and hopefully cheaper insurance Its a shame insuracne companies look at visual mods like, lowering, bigger wheels, body kits, stero's in the same light as performance mods. Either way its modified and they dont wanna know about it.A driver at work just got his insurance cancelled because he replaced his worn out discs with DBA drilled and slotted rotors, that put him one to many mods over what the insurer allowed and cancelled his policy, didnt even take into account the discs are the same dimensions as standard and of higher quality and provide better stopping performance. they looked at it as, its not a standard item and it does increase performance in braking therefore its a mod that's on there no no list.

I am insured with NRMA Insurance and they have covered my wheels as they will allow up to 8" wide rims and they can be as big a you like. Also I can lower the car up to 1 1/4 inch's, Not as low as I would like but hey, better then nothing.
