No probs. Tell us how it goes. :smiley:

Should make your car handle a little better around corners. I heard Eibach make well balanced springs that aren't too firm but firm enough to make a noticeable difference to handling.

I see the 1.8 16v uses the same springs as the 1.6D and TD... are the D and TD engines that much heavier than petrol?

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I got mine fitted at Elite Tyres in Rainham, they have excellent service and they supply and also fit. You might need your camber adjusting once your springs are in. I got Eibach Shocks and spring from them, and the car handles really well. Although its a 30mm drop.
