Getting my kit installed tomorrow!!!! Can't wait :D

Will let you guys know the results ... it takes me 1 hr to get there so it will be the perfect opportunity to see how much difference the kit will make :cool:

Nice!
Let us know how the shock absorbers go.
Looking at getting these in the future so it'll be good to get some feedback.

It's IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mostly freeway driving on the way back but the ride is more sensitive. pretty much nil bodyroll thru roundabouts and tight corners. It no longer feels like the rear is being dragged along and overall the car is more sensitive to steering input.

Didn't really lower the car much... just 25mm at the front and 30mm at the rear but that it good enough to negotiate most driveways.

Need more time to test it out in the long run... unfortunately work tmr so i will probably have to wait till wed ... but apart from that I AM HAPPY :D

what is involved in the kit and how much?

mate the kit consist of :

- koni shocks
- whiteline springs
- camber kit
- front and rear swaybars

as for pricing ... check this (http://www.fastmagna.com/products/whiteline/CK_Magna_TE.PDF)

edit: *beaten to the punch* doh :D

don't forget guys that the date on those prices is back in 2001.... there was an increase in price recently, so be warned.

Anyway, hope you got an alignment too. The upgraded suspension should see you with a lot less understeer, less bodyroll, much better corning and hence increase of entry and exit speed. Overall it'll be a much better car to drive around in. Not to mention a lowered Magna looks great. :bowrofl:

I would say fitted and alignment of the entire Works kit is around $1750. Maybe $100 to $300 more depending on where you are, and who you get it from.

So how much was it exactly? The PDF says $2400, Anthony rekons $1700 odd... what did you actually pay all up? :redface:

~ $2200

mind u i got it from Whiteline and got them to install it so i reckon it's about right ... couldn't care less anyway because i swear i am driving on rails now LOL

It's hilarious whenever someone uses the term 'handles like it's on rails' because I'd much prefer driving a car that didn't; then you could steer the car where you wanted it to go lol

Hooohohohohooooooo - ppl saying that, have never travelled with City Rail (Sydney). Go over 50 km/h and u r literally hanging for your life there. :bowrofl:
