Hey guys and girls so my car is lowered about 60mm on the back and its getting to me on how bouncy the car is ive been told its lowered on standard springs and shocks!
anyway my questions is can i leave the springs and just uprate the shocks when i higher it up? and if so what do i get? i was thinking spax??
any help would be great:y:

The back is a torsion bar, no spring, get some stiffer shocks and it should sort it :)

it cant be lowered on standard springs, unless they've been cut

im hoping that theyre not standard springs then one thing i cant stand is pikie modifiers :wall:
anyway if they arent or not what would be the best springs shocks to go for?

just stick to a basic apex kit off kamracing, for £211 they are the cheapest you'll get however they are still a good kit, plenty of people use them (including me), no one has anything bad to say about them just for a bit of fast road action

couple them with some wishbone/arb/rear beam uprated bushes your saxo will feel like a completely different car
