Prokit will definetly be ok with standard low mileage shocks and still improve the handling, just don't expect a massive difference in ride height.

Even with the boge shocks? Not after too much drop, plus want a bit firmer ride

Edit: Will I need to change anything, as the ones i'm going to look at are from a VR6??? And I've got an 8v

Decided I am going change my shocks if I go with the eibach sportline springs.

Any recommendations for a reasonably cheap set of shocks? I would like koni's ideally but out of my price range. Don't want anything too back breaking.

What about the likes of gmax/venom/FK? Or are all these basically the same?
