Hi, i'm running Technix atm and i'm all the way down on the back, but it's not low enough. Is there anything i can do to them to go even lower?
Thanks!

the only way you can get them lower is removing the spacers at the back...which migh help you out, gets a few more mm's out of the gap.
other than that you are in the teritory of cutting the springs down... which is a bad idea. It causes the dampers to over compress and is generally not good for the suspension.

couldn't you also remove the helper spring? I has no use at all apart form keeping everything in place when you jack the car

There is a place online that can make you custom springs to what even drop you want (obviously within reason)
One of my mates has a Corsa C and he got 120mm springs made for the back for £100 posted and they set it off really nice!!

Just an idea!

I take it that they dont drop that low on coilovers?
