Bilstein Streetline shocks aren't uprated, just good quality OE replacements. If you want an uprated setup, Apex are impossible to beat for quality and value for money. | |

when i put my first st of springs in mine, we didnt use spring clamps. springs were short enough just to fit in no bother at back. and the front we just pushed down on. on my mates 40mm springs we made a turnikee (sp) sort of thing | |

how u guys undo the locking nut which holds the plate onto the piston of the damper? Mines held on by two locking nuts instead of an allen screw and is impossible to undo! | |

aye g-max kits are good, just ordered 4 g-max shocks to replace my standard gsi jobbies, you could also try an Apex kit which is the same sort of money | |
