[kylepiggy]

just got off phone to tony at vally springs sais he can make me some but does not take cards or paypal and i dont have a cheque book. also have just phoned avo springs and they say the springs are discontinued so where do i buy some as i have just spent £280 on front and rear kyb gas shocks. can any body help a fellow S12er out ???

That's about your lot i'm afraid. Can you get a bankers draft for that amount of money?

will see what i can do i was hoping some 1 nearer to tony would be so kind that i could send them the money via paypal with a £20 tip and the rest they could give tony cash and then he could send me the springs ???

if doctor silvia ends up coming to my house soon, you could get them to make them and send him with the money as they are only 3 miles from me and i had mine done there, i could take him to collect them.

Depends on what you're using it for, I think you should find that quite firm but good enough for everyday use. The shocks are what makes the car feel stiff on the road really, Slimreaper has KYB's up front and Monroes on the rear with AVO lowering springs (I forget the spring rates but they are on here somewhere in the search button). His car is about right for an uprated setup that isn't to harsh. The higher rate springs should cancel out a bit more body roll too

The -40mm drop will make the rear end look like something has collapsed but that's perfectly normal for an S12 and there are ways of reducing the neggy camber effect.

on ebay. cm200sx is the user name. it's a product from canuck motorsport/superior chassis. it's canadian company and it's S12 specific.
