Hi guys.Just joined the group yesterday and was wanting to source some modifications suppliers in Perth.
Im hoping to do up my 96 Executive Sedan 5 speed with a body kit but money is tight and also lower to car.
So was going to do it bit by bit starting with a rear spoiler.
Can anyone give me some names of local people who can help out with parts and advice on lowering the vehicle.
Off list is ok if its not acceptable to post here.

Thanks

Greg

Heya mate and welcome!!

For bodykits and the like SSV have a fair selection.

I will be going the Sports Wagon Kit personally - but the AM kit is available.

For lowering - most ppl suggest Kings of Lovells Springs - you shouldn't need to change the dampeners - just the springs - and if you order them I can personally give you a hand to fit them - I have helped other members on here with various mods on various models of magnas.

I also did the lowering on my TH!!

The best thing to do - come on a cruise - have a chat to us - and then we can assist in ideas, where to get stuff done, prices etc

Welcome - and hope to see you out on the roads!! Oh - I drive a Silver TH with 18" ROH Fury's with green number plates "MANUAL" if you see me - give me a wave - or stop and have a chat ;)

Thanks for that.Would be great if i got some help when i lower the car.
Didint realise that there is so many magna drivers in Perth!!

Get the springs first!!! THE SPRINGS!!!

The wing can wait.. but by god the lowering can't!!

Yeah there are a few of us floating around - you may be suprised when you attend a cruise as to how many there actually are ;)

Well tomoorw i will call lovels and get a price for the springs.
Is there a particular size to quote.
i dont want it scraping .and thanks to manual who has offered to give me a hand to fit them.......

Hey welcome to the forums :)
If your lookin for a spoiler,u should try The Spoiler Shop,that's where i got my Vr-X spoiler from,for a good price
:D

Actually called in there today but was too late.Was around 5pm and they were closed but will check the price tomoorw.

Are you after a VR-X spoiler?It cost me $480,plus paint and install.Maybe cheeper if ur magna's White,maybz?

$310 for set of springs supply only.

$310 for set of springs supply only.

Too much!

$250 for a set of superlow (60mm) or lows (40mm) King Springs which a majority of the Magna's on here have.

yeah - call up autopro and get a price on king springs through them - i have kings super lows front and lows rear and it is great - i removed hte mudgaurds cos they scraped - but have had no other scrapage issues.

Or send Blake (AussieMagna) a PM or email and see what he can source - he has a few contacts!!

Or talk to PSI GTSII - he just got his car lowered in perth.

Manual

Yep.Just called autopro..$250..Lot better
Couldnt find that other guys username in the member list but 4250 is pretty good.
And can get a VRX spoiler for $295 unpainted supply only.

yeah $250 is about right - thats about what i paid for mine for memory!!

Manual

Yeah the springs themselves are reletively cheap...$250 - $300 sounds about right....the fitting and consequent wheel alignment are about $200 on top of your springs.

I got mine fitted at Maddington Tyre and Suspension, purely as they were the only people open over Xmas...and I could not drive around any longer with my new 18"'s looking like a 4WD :lol:

Allstate tyres, Wilkinsons, Malaga Suspensions, WA Suspension centre etc will do it also....budget $500 drive in drive out, get 60mm lowered at the front 40mm at the rear.

And yeah my Front mudflaps scape from time to time...but i'm just waiting for them to wear down to an acceptable level :)

have people here purposely ripped thier mudflaps off here if so how many. and is that wise

Yes I have

The scrapage was really irritating - as for wise - well i get more sh!t up teh side of my car now - but hey means i have a reason to wash it more often ;) haha

Yeh i coulda got mine like that but i was a lazy b#@$$## and did'nt wanna do the labour hehhe :D :D

How hard are the springs to fit? Cause I might buiy some lows or super lows for my TS and get my old man to fit them (very good with cars) then take it down for a wheel alignment..

honestly it aint hard at all - i have changed the springs in several magnas and have had no issues - if you have the gregories manual or haynes - it is all good!! I have done a 2nd gen and some 3rd gens - so yeah - no biggy

Manual

Don't forget good old RPW here in perth.

We supply and fit a set of Lovells low / superlow to the car front and rear for $450.00 all fitted drive in drive out.

Or we can sell a set of lovells for $288.00 for a set of four springs.

We can also do the kings and that as well.

Of course once you come to us - you will forever be indebted to yoru credit card as you find all these wonderful other goodies. Some people have likened us to the devil - you will keep selling your soul to modify your magna :D

Speaking of other goodies Dave...howz that single turbo kit for slug-o-matic (auto) Magnas like mine comming along?

Had anyone offer their car as a test platform yet? *wink* ...perhaps mine. *wink*. :-)

Look for the post happening right now

alll four? mate thats not too bad.

btw Welcome
