liked my billies... bit bouncy down 60mm though, having my konis on full on hardcore mode was a bit extreme for roads round here though

had mine on konis and jamex springs for 2 months, the handling inspires so much more confidence in the car, no dive under braking, flat into corners, its ace, like a go-kart

i find when you adjust them you think everything is fine for a few days... then they just fell awfull again...
driving the misus tigra(which has the konis) is a right comedy effort after been driving my nissan.... dont know how the feck i ever put up with it to be honest..

I got a set of GSi Konis off eBay the other week but I'm trying to find out how much they will lower it by but keep getting different amounts depending on what site you look at, the springs do have (what I assume are) part numbers on them but these don't seem to match up with anything I've seen - so any idea how much they do lower by? I've seen everything from 25mm to 60mm on different sites.
