60 or 40 mm??

As you say Mark it's within the budget i've got to play with. I know you very much get what you pay for with this kind of thing so will give them a go.
Cheers mate.

I personally have Koni dampers and Eibach springs
Rate them very highly!
Adjustable damping too which is cool

They're not cheap and only lower 30mm but are regarded as a very good set up.

Another very highly rated spring would be the H&R spring which lowers 40mm that I would have gone for had I not chosen Eibachs.

Depends how much money you have to play with really

What kind of money did you spend on the setup?

[MarkS]

Too much really

I got to the stage where it was basically-

- Cheaper and nearly my ideal set up
- Ideal set up (the one I really wanted)
- Spending yet more on some coilovers from Koni/Eibach etc.

I really couldn't stretch to the coilovers and knew I would be disappointed with the 'nearly ideal' set up

So basically scraped all my funds together and went for-
Eibach springs
Koni yellow dampers front and rear
Genuine g60 top mounts

About £550

I winced a lot when I clicked the order button

Worth it though

[Ben Lessani]

Eeek, quality costs!

I need to bump a ride off someone with a good setup to really see what its like.

As said all the time you get what you pay for but sadley thats too much for me atm. Bet it goes round corners like its on rails tho.

[MarkS]

If you're at Shady P's meet in easter I'll happily demonstrate

I need to play around with the damping really, I have the front set very hard; the rear needs to be cranked up half a turn.
That's the only disadvantage really- you have to remove the rear struts to adjust their damping

[OakeyDoak16v]

Too much fettling for me that is. I would never be happy and prob get ocd on it. I need a simple set up and then work on other aspects such as anti roll bar upgrade if required.

It does mate  
I reckon I'd scare myself long before the car gave way!

It's worth complimenting the new set up with decent tyres too

ARBs and bushes are definately a good shout as well

Unfortunately funds ran out long before I could get either of these
My front arb looks absolutely shot too

Ahhh I'm the opposite! I love to be able adjust things 
Definately can see the advantage of having a simple, from factory, optimum set up though

Tyres, whole new can of worms right there. (Eagle F1's FTW)
ARB's dont know too much about tbh but having done the poly bush upgrade i'm testing out one thing at a time and working on it that way.
