Hi,
I'm selling my coilovers as I've upgraded to some heavy duty Avo's.
The damper bodies are the stock TA Technix / Raceland ones that people use, but I've uprated the primary spring to a 300lbs version (bought from Demon Tweeks not more than 6 months ago for about £70)
As well as this, I ditched the rear dampers as they were junk and went with some Koni Adjustables (£100+).
So what I've got is:
2 x Raceland adjustable ride height coilovers
2 x Uprated 300lbs springs
2 x Koni Adjustable rear dampers
Also have the stock Raceland springs somewhere, but they are too soft for anything other than a 1.4 / 1.8 petrol model.
Only pic I've got is this one:

Wanting £150 for just the fronts, or £200 for the lot.
Cheers,
JP

the raceland ones are 6" I think. Uprated ones are slightly longer, but significantly stiffer so they don't coilbind.

No. I always ran with them in. It will go lower without obviously. See the above pic, that shows them still in place.
