Looking to replace my current set up as it is a shocking ride (really harsh, bumpy and uncomfortable).

I currently just have 30mm springs all round.

I'm after uprated shocks as well but was looking at a full kit, are there any recommendations, not stupidly expensive but have a fair bit to spend.

Any help appreciated

paggy, read the thread again, he isnt asking about springs, he wants a full suspension kit.

I doubt you have ever even owned a car, let alone suspension and just one of those people that reads things on the internet and believes them and then posts them up in other forums.

ok paggy. but if you actually knew anything about the subject you are talking about you would know who makes the dampers for eibach wouldnt you, and if you knew that then you wouldnt be reccomending he buys eibach at all.

thanks nick,

now for £330 you can get a bilstein sprintline kit if you are quick (they are being replaced with the B12 kit (£450+) and some places still have them in stock.

best option for that sort of money IMO

thing is until you have tried a good kit you will think Gmax, spax, Pi etc... is good.

the bisteins are so far ahead of cheap budget stuff.

Most fixed rate springs and shocks are around the £300 mark aren't they, i've used spax before and really liked them, my mate has Gmax on his fiesta zetec s and they are alright imo compared to what everyone says about them, brother had a mk2 golf gti with bilstein springs n shocks, i think they were the one down from the sprintliune (streetline i think) and it was amazing tbh, so if you can get bilstein i'd go for it!!!! or u2u me and i'll send my mates number, he's breaking a 1.2 with spax coilovers????
