Make sure you have both spring fitted on the front set up. As I understand it, coilovers have a small and a large spring fitted ontop

currently, my car is up on ramps at a garage with the mechanics scratching their heads! hopefully someone can tell me what is wrong!

they have fitted an fk suspension kit to my car (60/40 drop) and the back is fine but the front you can make bottom out by pulling the car down with your bare hands! i was talking to the lad who did it and apparently he has transferred the bump stops etc over from the original set up and says the springs seem too soft! has n e one got any suggestions or had this happen to them before?
