Ebay have loads of bad coilovers, try Black Art Designs for some decent ones.

You'd be better with some Bilsteins.

Why do you say that Paul?

Just my experience driving a few cars with them fitted. There's nothing wrong with them, but i feel for the price there are better alternatives. I think they are fiddly to setup, if you run them hard they can burst :cry: and they felt 'soft'. Bilstieins are race proven and you can still get all the parts to build yourself a set of group A spec coilovers (including stupidly light magnesium rear bodies!). Plus no adjustment, so you spec them, fit them and forget them.

Plus a well respected rally man kind of hit the nail on the head when he said a set of the 3 way BAD cost the same as one corner of proper 3 way stuff...

A 800bhp engine cost 3 times that of a 400bhp one. As with most things in life price will pay a big part in your decision when speccing parts for your car.
