ke382tg - if u don't mind me asking, how much did the coilovers set u back per corner inc labour?

Are those coilovers full height, damper, camber adjustable?

It was a big job and was a final job lot price so your price will probably be quite different, a few steering components were replaced (due to being 30 years old!), bushes front and rear all replaced, threaded sleeves welded onto struts for the height adjustable coils (struts were shortened also), Eibach springs, Bilstein shock absorbers (not the externally adjustable model, they were revalved by Bilsteins Sydney outlet to suit my spring rate etc), rear Bilstein shock absorbers, new rear lower shock mounts fabricated, leaf springs reset with an extra leaf added, I think that was about it. All up was about $1800 or so (may have been closer to $1500????).

I have also added K-mac adjustable strut tops for adjustable camber/castor (I don't recommend these, PM me for details), 20mm roll centre adjusters, my car is 5 to 7 inches lower (depending on where I have the coil-overs adjusted to, so RCA's were required to set the steering geometry back to a happy place.

After a recent trip to the track at Wakefield to really push the car hard I am very happy with the current setup and I won't be making any more adjustments to the steering or suspension.

Shane.
