James_dj Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 how much do you want to spend? how much do you want to lower it? if you are after just new springs eibach are a good bet. had a couple of cars with these on and very good and not overly hard.

burnsie Posted January 10, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 not sure how much i want to spend yet, probally about £150 so i expect i just go with springs. Tim styles in Bridgewater will do eibach springs for £95 which doesnt sound too bad. thanks for your help James-dj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_dj Posted January 10, 2003 Report Share Posted January 10, 2003 how many miles has the car done? if your changing the springs and are doing in on a budget would probably be worth putting new standard shocks on if its done over 90k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnsie Posted January 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2003 i was thinking off replacing shocks as well. whats best to go for standard or uprated(!!!) if anyone does uprated that is? Thanks again for all your advice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_dj Posted January 13, 2003 Report Share Posted January 13, 2003 All depends how much you want to spend and what sort of ride you want? cheaper option is to fit the springs and standard shocks which will retain alot of the ride. The second is to go for a new setup entirely but the ride will be more harsh but the springs and shocks will be matched so you will probably get better handling. hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
