Hi there, had this kit on my last car and was very pleased with the performance, for the money there really doesnt seem to be much that compares, I'd definately recommend it!

Don't buy it, the kit is sh!t.
You will probably have a very rough ride with this kit, also you will probably find that the front springs won't be the same height!

vr6 is right alot of people have complained about odd sized springs try the eurocarparts ventura/bilstein set its about the same price and quality is alot better.

Hello there

trouble is always lack of funds so always have to find cheapest solution so inevitably there is compromise.
I might save up for eibach/koni or go for 16v oe stuff.
Thanks for taking time to reply.

i'd do what dean suggests and get the ventura/bilstien kit from euro car parts. loads of people on here have/or have had them and they are a great kit for the money. same sort of price as the boge kit but if you order from stuart at the leeds branch you'll also get a 10% discount from being a member of this forum. check the deals/discounts section.
