when every one says coupe do they mean coupe as in the one that is like soup or the other way with the a sound on the end

Mate it is really either way, coop or coop-aye

chicken coop for me

mmm.... coop.

So - What is the deal with reverse eye rear leaves?

Cos my car sits right at the front. But just seems too high at the back. Wanted to drop it like 1-2 inches...
Is it just standard leaves with the main one turned over?
I take it that this can't be done at home?
You go to a supsension place to do this?

Just get some lowering blocks. You could do that at home.

Reverse Eye'd spring would be better.

The reverse eyed springs is where they flatten out the loops at the ends and then reverse the loop the other way. IT drops the car 2 inches. This can only be done by a suspension place.

Quote:
what if only one eye of the spring is reversed(the one closer to the ground compared to the other eye)!, other is left as is so car gets a little lower while still making both ends of leaf more parallel to the ground.
what do u guys think?
good idea or not

How much does something like that cost?

Isn't it those guys who drive British sporty cars that say "coo-pay" and "saloon"? Here we generally "coop" and "sedan".

In Japan it is literally written クーペ (kuupe as in "ku-peh", two syllables) but I'm not sure if it is pronounced as one syllable or not.

Barpk,

Doing just one will mean it gets lowered only half as much.

I can't seen any real advantages in doing this. Changing the shackle lengths could be done to equalise the difference. Otherwise your diff will be no longer point forwards. This might put additional load on your rear universal joint, causing problems.

Lumix,

As for the cost. I bought mine 2nd hand from a fella in Newcastle. I reconditioned them myself (New nylon sliding bushes), and sold them to Mikali. I figure that he's already resold them.

Cheers,
Chris
