Hey guys. I had a bodykit fitted to my car not that long ago. Its lowered 40mm and sits low as hell. The engine is out now and im away to put a C20XE in. I imagine that the C20XE is heavier and the front bumper would probably hit the ground. If i put the standard springs back in, would the car sit too high or u reckin with the added weight of the C20XE it would sit nicely? i have 17'' alloys on the car. Id love to put on bigger wheels to bump up the height but dont have the cash at the mo. 
Cheers

To be honest, i dont think there is a MASSIVE difference *Not actually knowing the figures*
Wot bodykit u got for it to be too low ? My mates got a 2L Turbo on coilovers on 17's . . and a steinmetz kit, i don't think he's ever scrapped except in multi-story car parks
And thats about -60mm all way round . .

1.2 is 155kg with box, 20xe is 190.
sport should be about 160ish
std springs will be shite, Id imagine it might sink another 10mm
