There is no point in spending on 'budget' coil overs. all you'll get is crap. You might as well buy a decent set of fixed rate. Anyhow, when do people ever adjust the height of the car once it's all set up? Hardly ever.

Try calling Dave_A at V Sport and see what he can do.

how much are your gaz kits thou aparently your n ot suposed to have adjustable at the back due to the car not being strong enough on the mountes this is what spax have told me aparently you need to weld reinforcment brackets around the rear suspension mounts :-?

It depends how the rear is adjusted. Some kits you need to have a stronger turret, as that takes the weight. Some have adjustable platforms under the springs. Hence the weight is on the same place.
