I thought that mate, thanks though.. the trouble is if you cut them ya have to flatten the top to make it sit right, and the amount of heat you need to do that weakens the spring.. don't fancy doing 130 and a spring goes... not that I do 130mph anyway

I'd say the 4i suspension is pretty much the same on the normal granada's but the 24v's suspension is totally different, as I found out many moons ago.. mind you, I say all this but I might be wrong about 4i's and normal grannies
