Not yet, but soon..... Got to get them from xtreme, and some top mounts

Anyone know how much geometry set up from Elite costs. Have camber adjusters and adjustable shocks, and once I get the spring prob sorted, want to get it all set up. If its worth it!

oh yes, it's definately worth it mate, the car will hadle sooooo much better, have the fronts set to -1.25 camber,
Elite is definately the place to go, though not sure if Phil has arranged special discount for the SIDC, worth asking mate!

Cool, no harm in asking. Was really depressed about the cost yesterday. But thanks to you, seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and looking forward to it all being sorted and set up nice. Will they do the damping of the strut aswell, because I have no idea if it is set right. If the rest of the suspension is anythig to go by, it won`t be. Cut down springs can`t do anything for handling!
Just need to splash out on some parts now!

Yeah mate must agree

Was gutted when first read your post in General ( Springs cut )

But look on the bright side mate , You / Xtreme noticed it before anything to serious happened

It is alot of money to pay , But will transform your car once it's all done

+ Knowing the fact that you are in good hands with the boy's @ Elite & Xtreme

Still can`t believe they cut the springs, they are only 160 notes to buy!, it has camber adjusters and dampness adjustable struts, so why scrimp on the springs. Bast*rds.....

Cut down springs are extremely dangerous as normal springs are made so that the end coils are flat, and the top and bottom mounts are angled with a recess so the the springs fit perfectly flat and sit flush in the mounts, but when springs are cut, only a small portion on the spring sits in the mount, so the spring can fall out.

It is also an MOT fail

Be careful when driving the car until it's sorted mate
