Hi, I dont think turbo shocks will fit or the springs .


I think its somthing to do with the 4+4.

But wait untill some one else comes on they might know better.

Correct me if I'm wrong but all Calibra's are independant rear suspension... and all have the same rear springs.

The difference lies in the fact that manufacturers only sell -35mm kits for the 4x4 turbo... because of the txb problems. So basically I think they'll fit, but will only lower your car by 35mm.

For turbo owners, I'm fairly sure you could fit a -60mm kit from another cally.

hey splinter seems yer from basingstoke i go thier all the time hows youre car with speed bumps? when you go over em does the car knock at all or any problems with rear suspension arms or arches???????
i got a chance to buy 35mm springs for £90 and my friend (mechanic) urges me not to lower it cause of the problems i just mentiond plus i go over speed bumps almost everyday n the bumps killed the shocks on my escort n ruined the anti roll bar now 3 times . n lowerd callys look to amazing

nice 1 guys for the replys i know 4 a fact th rear ones will defo fit on an 2 be honest thts to only part i wanna drop. i like th front th way it is its jus tht my rear weels looks really small coz theres a massive gap between th arch an th tyre. so if i jus lowered th back end would tht b ok or do i hav to replace all 4 springs.
