    Where abouts can I get hold of...

    Those ones? I got mine on ebay a while ago. Think they where only about £20 new. Keep checking on ebay, for sale ads on here and try the dealers to see how much and if they are available still! Edit: Cruiser87 beat me to it!

    Looking to join the fold, how does this car look????

    After educating myself on what a "boost" valve does on a n/a engine (thank you ebay) i can pretty much guarantee that car will be a waste of money. Has he got a dyno for that 190bhp :p

    3000k hid question

    Ive got 6ks and they are white? Odds are that any hids wont pass an mot as your not allowed to use hid bulbs with standard halogen lenses due to the beam pattern and glare they produce.

    coil spring advice needed!

    Put springs on mine but it didnt make it soft and bouncy? Mayb the struts have gone. Do bounce test. Push down on the car and see how long it takes to settle back at normal ride hight. And the bearings wont be from the strut. More than likely the top mount.
