Well at first i want to change the suspension system but i found a set from vogtland but they say that it is for the non sporting model. The diference is in the electric or hydraulic steering wheel system position? Because i dont have either.

If i can change the suspension system the kit comes with 35mm springs that means 15 more drop than the stock.
It will be ok if i fit the lower strut brace for everyday use or i scratch everything underneath?

It's nothing to do with power steering -the difference is that a Sporting is 20mm lower than a non-sporting Seicento.
To start with try reading this- https://www.fiatforum.com/cinquecento-seicento-faqs/95853-modding-your-cento.html
-then use the 'Search this Forum' section on the homepage & search for suspension & lowering advice.

I've never had a problem with a lowered car fitted with a lower strut brace but then again i've never driven on Greek roads. It depends what you are likely to encounter on your roads.... dead sheep? drunk tourists?
 
Thank you for answer Ouby i just ask because i have send an email on Vogtland and they tell me that you can fit the springs but no the shocks on a sporting!
Anyway my options then are the Koni str.t with Eibach springs or the Vogtland kit

Any vote between those two kits?

For the lower strut bar the problem are the holes in the road and the speed bumps.
If i hit a sheep i will go directly to a cliff or to the sea and with a tourist i will have to fix my broken bumper.
 
Noone has ever install a Vogtland suspension kit?
