RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Midnightclub - 09-09-2014
Would like to see some pics of how it's setup on the rear beam, cars looking epic though!

Its pretty bouncy but depends what pressures you run to drive, if you want it super low when aired out you might need slightly more pressure to get a good drive height then its pretty hard lol

I will start making a kit sure, £1000 a piece, sound good? Haha
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Eeyore - 09-09-2014
I just want to see a guide and a parts list!
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Piggy - 09-09-2014
looks good...surprised you gone for air when its a daily mind... does it not ride rock hard in decent height mode?
how does the handling become affected?! Cant imagine its very progressive? or is it more predictable!?
Love the clean look though, very nice.
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 09-09-2014
I must admit handling is not the best, main problem im having is that the rear is very bouncy even with low pressures as there is so little weight back there.
But its a form over function thing anyway I didnt expect it to be good, but it is nice to be able to cross over lanes on the motorway without clipping cats eyes

Really need 10mm more at the front, time to get the grinder out I suppose lol.
In all seriousness does anyone know of any top mounts that will be thinner? And not madly expensive ?
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - 1616six - 10-09-2014
This is just so me. Only thing I'd change would be a white shell. Apart from that it's literally exactly how I'd have done it!

I was considering a colour change next year but im not sure if funds would allow or if it might actually be just a step too far for a 306 lol, but would be awesome
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - sam - 10-09-2014
Chris got it an extra 20mm lower by using 205 compbrake top mounts, looks awesome dude!!! Some ccw would look sick on this!
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 10-09-2014
How did he mount them dude?
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - sam - 10-09-2014
Just like a normal top mount chap
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 10-09-2014
Are they not round?
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - sam - 10-09-2014
Yes still fit chap
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 10-09-2014
Did he have to drill a new hole on the turrets?
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - mattyh24hdi - 13-09-2014
Very cool loving this. I really wanted air didn't think it was possible because of rear beam. But fair play for the effort ? keep it up dude

RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Piggy - 14-09-2014
Does look awesome....
But isnt the wheel on outside of arch illegal?
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 14-09-2014
Piggy I think its the tyre tread that has to be covered by the arch to be legal.
Any colour suggestions?
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Piggy - 14-09-2014
Any rotating part I believe buddy
I like them as they are...deep metalic purple look awesome though!!

Yep, this...that's whole point of ruining handling with stretched tyres.
Being honest, I'll never understand form over function lol. But I have been out in a bagged Mk2 Golf and the ride wasn't that bad in that at sensible height....though corners were slightly worrying lol.
I do appreciate the amount of work that's gone into this though, especially with the beam!
As for colours...pearlescent white with Ford Ultimate Green wheels and accents imo!
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Piggy - 14-09-2014
I take it back.
So long as its not sharp/jagged or the wheel nuts, you can have 30mm protrusion of the wheel rim. Tyre must be covered.
However if I was a police officer, I can understand the difficulty. I would also understand if they said stretched tyres were dangerous...but I dont want to open a ugly can of worms!!
So you guna go for a white shell or respray white??
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - rd070707 - 14-09-2014
I was considering a respray but not neccessarily white. Would like something completely different and not available in a 306 as standard if i was to do it.
But atm the wheels need resprayed and I may as well change the colour when I am at it.
And thanks tom I wouldnt have thought you would appreciate it at all, and tbh it still handles as firm as coils did so I wouldnt say it was boaty in the corners at all, if anything its a bit too firm for me lol.
Anyone recommend rear shocks as ive just standard items in atm and its way to firm for them
RE: Rd's bagged Stage 1 HDI - Jimbo - 14-09-2014
Gaz golds?? Round 100notes off ebay i believe
And being adjustable you can play with how tou want them
