60mm on Apex Sport shocks and springs.







Just the right amount imo. 40mm doesn't really look lowered.

Not horrendous. I genuinely can't remember how much it cost, even though it was only recently

I got it off Mark (broster) off here. Drop him a PM, he should be able to help.

It's a decent bit of kit that's for sure

The B10 kit is uprated shocks and springs - so I got 4 new shocks and springs in the kit

You'll need the rubbers, bump stops etc from your std suspension and your top mounts from the front.

It cost me about £240 for that kit delivered from Venom Motorsport, but I think the price might have gone up a little bit now. If you can stretch to a B10 kit then go for it. Mind you it's nearly £200 extra on Venom

60mm springs can be quite cheap but it really isn't worth getting them on their own as the ride will be terrible beyond words.
