Eibach are the ones to go for. Cant fault the ride on them even at -50mm. Way different league to the likes of Spax and P.I.
Im sure others on here would agree.

Eibach only do a -35mm drop or a -35mm front/-50mm rear drop, surely the car wud be uneven

the nova had PI and they were shocking to be fair....may suit some people but not for use on the roads that i have to put up with round here 
spax are ok but i agree with comments on eibach
do you have a budget?? if not how about konis??

Well i have a budget of replacing springs, but shocks will have to stay at the moment need to clear my £8k debt off first & also want a holiday in May.
