Had a search around on the website and I can't find a great deal of information on what replacement shocks and springs are available for the VR4 saloon. I have seen a couple of kits for the legnum mentioned, but am I right in thinking that they won't fit the saloon? :inquisiti

I am considering getting some springs to lower the ride height slightly, but I am thinking that I may as well change the shocks while I am at it. Anyone know of some decent sets that I can buy without busting the bank?

If the job isn't too difficult then I am going to try and fit them myself, which should save a few more pounds :happy:

Is the suspension different for the saloon? I guess the spring rate could be, but what about physical size and design?

Have tried Camskill for TEIN springs for saloon but they don't stock them, only
Legnum so guess there is a difference.

I don't think that V6 springs will fit the VR4, due to the fact that they have completely different running-gear. The VR4 has the underpinnings from the EVO-IV...IIRC.

Could always look at the Bilstein B12 kit fitted to mine......I've had no issues other than it's a tad lower than I expected.....does look good though :pimp2:

Got mine from Euro Car Parts (http://www.eurocarparts.com/) as they were the main Bilstein importers at the time and the kit had to come from Germany - not sure if still the case. Price wise, it was around the £550-£600 mark last I knew
