I think the rear is lowered 8mm and yes, it's pro kit dampers and sportline springs. I've had someone else in the car who also has a 180 and he said it didn't feel that much harder than standard 180 suspension. You do feel bumps if you go over one, but for normal driving about it's not uncomfortable at all.

very much so I've tallied up materials and it could be quite expensive so I won't be doing it in a hurry. So far i've spent £38 on a Makita Jig Saw (apparently used once and is £150 in B&Q?!?! Fingers crossed with that one!) £2.50 on tape, £1 on crap sand paper and £3 on fleece

Well the audio thing is out the window for now. I decided I needed to get some new tyres, which is a better priority. AJ's wheels were up for sale so I bought them off him and they came equipped with 2 Pirelli P-zero's and 2 Bridgestone Potenza's! Perfect! New tyres and a new colour it was to be and I'm quite chuffed with the result, the tyres are brilliant, I have the Bridgestone's on the front at the moment.

Looking good Brian! Much better on the stock wheels! 180's look best on them, even if they do reduce the ride quality to bone shattering lol!

Cheers Jamie! I'm actually waiting on the other 2 wheels being powdercoated, so I have silver ones on the other side at the moment and have been running them for a while. Decided after a few years of ownership with OZ's it was time for something different!

It's amazing how a new set of tyres can make it feel like a different car and a totally different driving experience!
