You know i can't recall off the top of my head. It came on a jap import. It's got 4 locating points to tie the lower control arm mounting points together. Works a treat. I'll check the brand tonight.

Sorry mate, there is no brand name on the thing. Here's a pic. Not pristine by any means but as it's under the car who cares? Functionality is fine just a few scratches etc.

I think the wheel centre to guard height was 330mm from memory...the details are on the whiteline site.

I have a pic of the car with the springs in attached. I ran 17x8 with 235s and it looked sweet in the guards and didn't scrape.

How much for postage to Newcastle ? These would be a straight swap for my standard rear springs right ?

Hey Bill,
Mate if you have any tools this is a pretty easy one, you should be able to hanle it yourself no probs.

You don't need a spring compressor to get the old spring out....just don't be standing in front of the top plate Smile and the Whiteline spring is just compressible enough by hand (get a nate to help) that you can get it back in without a spring compressor as well.

Pulling the actual strut out is dead easy.

A wheel alignment after you are done wouldn't hurt though.
