Bilstein sprintline shocks + Chassis Dynamics springs.

Handling is excellent, ride is quite harsh.

Try the Eibach springs with those dampers Joff. Very forgiving ride but with excellent handling

GMAX -40MM Full kit on my GSI worked wonders for the handling in comparison to standard i would recommend these as a budget kit.

Courtenay Premium Suspension
(Bilstein dampers and their own springs)

Great ride and handling but could do with being a bit lower.

I would mate, but the coilovers will be on shortly so not worth the messing about I was thinking of the Eibach springs tho
