Opel Manta Tuning
Opel Manta Springs
Chassis Dynamics 30mm Lowering Springs
I had a set of Chassis Dynamics 30mm lowering springs on my 2.2
GTE Exclusive and they dropped the car by about an inch (25mm
is approximately 1 inch, so 30mm is a tad over that)
These springs are stiffer too (I don't have the poundage rates
to hand) and need to be used in conjunction with a set of uprated
shock absorbers,
though I have personally only ever used them with AVO gas adjustables.
Physically the springs are a lot more "meaty" than the
standard Opel springs and are plastic-coated, though after heat,
dirt etc. the coating tends to track and expose the metal to the
elements.
Fitting the rear springs is simple but the front springs do need
some tools like a ball-joint splitter and spring compressor.
