I havnt seen anything sorry. What springs are you putting on? HH have an offer on some springs and dampers if you havnt bought anything yet.

Don't think the 7th Gen kit will fit the 8th.
Cheers for the heads up....
I was looking at: 8th Gen Springs
Just trying to understand how much work this will take. I have done some in the past but not a car of this size...... would i have to compress the springs to get them off or remove the whole arm??

Springs are springs, nothing overly complicated in that. It can be a little daunting, especially on your pride and joy.
Is the rear suspension set up on the 8th really that much different from the 7th?
I was sold a set of 8th generation springs for my 7th and they went on the car no problem, only problem was they did not offer the correct ride height.
Spring diameter must be identical?
Thanks for the heads up Paul. Fairly happy to do the work, but as the car is my work companion if i get it wrong or it doesn't go back together im stuck in the mud. Electric's are more my thing.....
Cheers Brett,

speak to bc uk bro,they will make the spring rate for you,had to do the same for my diesel coilovers from them
I might ring them as if I was going to get a set I would want the rear to go higher than stock.
This is because I tow having this would be great.
Also when I'm not just lower them to my spec.
Tell me bro can you change the height easly with them on the car and how long does it take

they pretty easy to set up or down bro
thats the best thing about them,shouldnt take longer than 30-40 minutes to do all four bro,remember with bc-racing coilovers they can be set so low that the car will be undrive-able or they can be made stock height too,these unlike the tein system are deisgned to be slammed out if the owner likes,where as with the teins running them to low can pop up problems(suppose also depends on drivers habits too and how he treats them)bc-racing coilovers are now one of the leading in the market and iv got speaking to s few pro in the game who said their build quality is excellent....
