Quick little update, today I finally fitted my coilovers, in the form of some meisterR zeta S' s set em straight to hardest setting and I can confirm they have totally transformed the car!!

If im honest I think there a little hard on that setting for the roads around my area but I can now have a play around and see what works best..

All in all im chuffed to bits with them but I can now feel how jobby the tyres actually are, oh well best get ordering the new rubber for the regas

oh also got my dad to paint my wiper arms

How much were the meisters and where can I get some buddy?

I got mine second hand but only been on one car previously got them at a good price ,£350...

Brand new there about £700 I think. . You can get them straight from MeisterR just type it in to Google..

if I were you I would do as I did and wait for a good second hand set to come up, theres some good bargains to be had if you keep your eyes on ebay and this forum..

I have meister r's on my 4th gen as well. Got them brand new, paid about £650 I think. The handling is excellent, I have it on exactly half way in terms of the hardness setting, I still have to try and avoid pot holes and drains but overall very happy. Peformance Autoworks set mine up for me.

I now have mine set the same now at 16 clicks all around @ATR84 and its pretty much perfect, I thought they were a tad soft on the softest setting, but still handled brilliantly.. I wasn't expecting the damping adjustment to make a great deal of difference but it really is like night and day between the hardest and softest settings. .

So this just happened

the calipers and pads them selves fit like dream, however as expected the fanblades wouldn't go over so I tried a regamaster and seems I do not have enough offset...

So 15mm spacers will be required and im sure someone was selling some on here not so long ago anyhow, I will track them down..

my only worry now is that I plan on running 225 width tyres and with 15mm spacers they will be hanging out the arches so im guna need another set of wings to cut up..

Anyway this set up will certainly make statement when I get it done and I cant wait!

Nice one bud. Not without their problems, but will be worth it in the end

What are they from? I had a set from a 7 series Beemer. I was going to use them with standard sized discs, as they would have worked a treat once I'd made up adapters, but I ended up getting K-Sports instead.

What are you planning to do for the rears to balance it out?
