      I changed mine last year to Bilstein shocks and H&R springs, does drop it quite a bit bu the ride is very good, quite firm/hard but not too bad on choppy serfaces You could try to find a now discontinued Koni sport kit (shocks and matched springs), or just renews the Boge shocks and get some H&R's to go over them...

      Cheers,

                Happy waiting for one tho

                I was lucky to get one from Tweeks.


                I actually have a mate travelling in Oz at the moment, I was planning on asking him if he could maybe purchase and sort out shipping for us whilst there, see how much it works out at
