that should see you a very good handling setup. any lower and the handling get worse for road/track use imo. i have mine at 60 wish id never done it

Thank you for the links dude Smile I'm trying to keep costs low on it so I wouldn't be able to purchase shocks like that, Would you recommend anything that's cheaper ? Also I'm gonna do the subframe mysef cause I want to learn more about them myself and my budget is limited for now haha. I'm looking at fitting 17" x 9" rota gtrd's which I'll need hubcentric pcd adapters for.
Am I mad thinking these will fit in my arches ? I've taken measurements but I'm not entirely sure

just a thought, would a beam minus it's torsion bars be a place to start for fitting a kit?
for instance - - http://www.airride.co.uk/air-suspension-...etsvalves/

Just had a look at that there I'll definitely have to start drawing up plans for a custom kit like that.

Would the torsion bars not foul on something ? Or could I put them in place of the shocks ? And have another set up for shocks elsewhere that are more suited for air struts ? Or those two in one struts ?

Just been looking at these. Could be worth putting the money aside for. Any thoughts ?
