wots that geo setup thing?? ill just be like slap em on as low as they go haha
I get the impression that you don't actually know what coilovers areim not interested in performance so i wouldnt spend a grand on coilover even if i had it, dont think i could find £1000 worth of suspension for the panda
already got lowering springs on at 30mm, and the lowest ive seen on suspension kits is 40mm
dont wanna go and spend money on a kit only to want it lower still so i might aswell save up for the height adjustable coilovers
one other route which people do is cutting the springs but imo its a stupid idea
You won't be able to see them when they're on the car tbh and you can get a large drop with normal springs......i know what coilovers are and i know what dampers are.
another thing if you read what i put it says im not interested in it from a cornering performance veiw, want it purely for the looks

If you just slap them on and set them as low as you can go your car will most likely be some kind of liability on the road if you are lucky. As for handling, well forget it.
A geommetry setup to use the full term, involves corner weighting the car, which means setting the height of the suspension with a driver aboard or as some occasionally prefer with a driver and passenger. Then you can set the ride height properly. It's an exacting science and I would do it to the millimetre. I used to use ballast in the driver's seat equivalent to the weight of the driver I had been given. Or I would use a colleague who was close to the same weight. You need to do this properly so that when you are sitting in the driver's seat the car is at the correct ride height all the way round.
Then you need to align the front and rear. You need to set the camber, castor and toe angles. Obviously you should do all this whilst you still have the car corner weighted. If you don't do this your car will be absolute rubbish and way worse than a stock car when it comes to handling. It may even be dangerous.
wow 'complicated' thanks for the info may not get them now have to see dont wont to bodge the hole car up init lol
