Are These Any Good?
Hey, I was just wanting to know if these are worth buying... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/COILOVER-C...item2a222c612e ... I seen them and just dont know if I should go for them or not? Also while yous are here... How much did you's pay to get the torsion bar lowered? (That's if you got a garage to do it and yeah I know garages will charge different, just a rough idea) MANY THANKS, Jordan.

It's impossible to get a good coilover set for cheaper than a budget suspension kit.

I wouldn't bother personally, you get what you pay for, I don't see these offering much.

I wouldn't bother with them coilovers tbh, I'd get either a set of spax or apex
And £80-100 ish to lower the torsion bar, but make sure they do it the correct way by taking both bars out and re-fitting them

Well I've heard not alot of garages will touch the things, so I guess that's no bad. And I'll keep my eyes open that, thanks alot.

There's lots of people on here that are willing to do your torsion bar, where ever you live there should be someone on here within about a 50 mile radius that will do it

Well, I live in Livingston, just outside Edinburgh. So if you know anyone give me a shout, but I'll put up a thread once I get my coil-over's, hopefully within the next few weeks if things go to plan.
