                looks good. not too different from standard.

                ive heard alot about cheap kits being crashy and too harsh, but id be interested to hear what you have to say once you get a chance to test them out.

                obviously it would be real nice to get a set of decent bilsteins and eibachs, but with a price tag of over £600... there well out of my price range.

                    For the price its worth it for the springs alone, I made an offer so didn't pay the full price either.

                      Nice one, I will be interested in finding out how they work out, I was going to buy them just for the rear springs and sell the rest on

                        Update on the suspension I bought from Germany, I have had the car on the road now for a few months & not used it much but I am disapointed with the ride since putting the new suspension on.
                        The car looks good lowered but on the road it is a bit wollowy and not as stiff as I would have hoped for, A friend of mine has had a ride and suggested the dampers are at fault so I am thinking of buying a set of billstein B4 all round. If this does not improve things I will put the original springs on with the B4s

                          A few of members are using Billstein b6 dampers with the (astra mk3 gsi) eibach springs which is a good combination, if your wanting a bit more of a smoother ride then go for the b4's with eibach springs b4's are based on OE setting.

                            I am going to try the B4s with the German springs 1st to see how they go, Its a bit of trial & error, and the cheapest option at the moment

                                Any update? How's the ride quality with bilstein/German springs setup? I'm planning to get bilstein shocks also though can't decide yet on what springs to get.
