hey guys, dnt suppose u know a really cheap way to lower a 340 (and keep it driveable)....

thanks

Mithun

no such thing exists.

ah man, cnt u even lower the front?

not4chep yaz needsa new springs n shox import like. innit

I've heard about rear lowering blocks for the rear leaf springs before, which aren't expensive - I think around the £40 mark. There is a post about uprated adjustable shocks around somewhere on here before, there are definitely a few options.

(for 360)

That page has springs which lowers 40mm. For front only though. For rear you need to get blocks between the axle and spring or you can have made new leafs which lowers the car.

lowering a 1986 340 1.4

...is silly, primarily because:

* The 1.4 (well, 1397) is a piss weak engine.

* People will laugh at you.

Just my thoughts.

you can, but you'll probably come off at the first corner!

oh and you spelled "can't" wrong

"lowering a 1986 340 1.4 "

Let the tyres down.

Really it`s a bit of a pointless exercise - with no benefit that I can see.

How young exactly?
Because I know personally that by the age of 13 I had a very firm grasp of spelling, grammar and punctuation.
Also, this isn't a text message, there is no limit to the number of letters you can use!

*puts language gestapo hat away*

oi lay off him if he wants to lower his car let him
you can get a lowering kit for the 340 from www.msport.co.uk its a 40mm drop and its only £82 that includes post and packing
do ittt!!!

"oi lay off him if he wants to lower his car let him"

I personally am not a great fan of modifying cars, but if that floats yer boat then so be it.

Why not do something that actually improves the car though......

Any suggestions for the price of a lowering kit?

OK, im 18, an A Level student from London which may explain my gramatical errors.
My sincere apologies for those who cannot understand the short cuts, it is just a bit quicker to type cnt rather than cannot. Don't you agree?

Anyway, thanks for the advice guys...appreciate it

What sort of modifications will improve the car?
I am no pro so im jus going by your word really...i didnt think that lowering would have an adverse effect on the running of the car
