HLM Sign another exclusive deal!

[woz]

Today Hamish has agreed an exclusive deal with Koni FSD, for us to be the SOLE distributor for all Volvo Koni FSD kits (850, V/S/C 70, and S60). .....................

This is great news for HLM/Chip Tuning and even better news for our customers!

Great news - I will leave the old girl up on the axle stands, cycle to work for a couple weeks to save cash and bingo - I will be back up to Bromsgrove with me wallet.
FSD's were next on the shopping list anyway - just between bread and baked beenz in fact.
Well done.

Edited to say that they don't lower the car, eibach springs will lower them by 30mm

LOL

No really. Hamish - as the car is already lowered - will the eibach spring lower it the full 30mm ?

[pzorb]

I have Eibachs & FSDs fitted. I'd say it looks about the same as a T5R:

[Andrew]

ok but that doesn't answer my question. Is there specific eibachs for the R which is already lowered which will lower it a further 30mm ?
if not does anything exist that will?
got to be something - seen many yank Rs and Euro Rs sunk to the ground

[pzorb]

Andrew as far as I know, there is only one type of Eibach Pro spring for each basic family of Volvo (I can't comment about the Eibach Sportlines). So if you want your car lower than the one in the pic, you don't want Eibachs. The quoted lowering will refer to a stock base model eg an 850 GLT.

So things do exist: FK springs. 60 at the front, 40 at the rear. Though with springs that short, you may risk killing the front shock as it might be too long when bottoming out - consider getting shortened shocks, which FK also do. http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pag...html?id=130433

The Yanks run coilovers / cut springs.

Andrew,

In a word No !
You can try other springs as per Martin's post, however FSD is designed to work with standard sprngs or the Eibach Prokit.
My feelings are that any lower than the Eibach Prokit, on U.K. roads will quite literally be a pain in the arse !

Hamish.

There are 2 for the 850/x70. Only difference being the rear springs, they have a different weight ratings for the saloon (910kg) and estate (1010kg).

Ive just bought myself the estate kit

[pzorb]

Ive just bought myself the estate kit

Ah nice one. That'll stop your V70 looking like an XC

[BlackBeast]

They dont call my car tractor for nothing

The springs wont be going on until I get new shocks. Ive sold the yellow adjustables which has funded the new springs just need to save up for some Ferodo ds2500 (porsche fitment ) which arent cheap, almost as much as the s60r discs and then a set of FSDs.
