thanks me old fruit
I've spent the past week wearing a hole in my head from the constant scratching and wondering
think I'll be going with the teins, just convinicing a mate that getting him ti help take my car apart is a good idea lol
the only issue I can see from doing it myself is not having any spring compressors, is there something else I can use?

Spring compressors won't break the bank and are handy to have kicking around for the future. I got mine for £20. I suppose you could use some soft wire and twist it tight but the proper tool makes the job 100 times easier.

You could try Halfords or Autosave if you have them nearby, I would imagine any of these places would have them. You could also try ebay. Mine are Draper ones and do the job just fine.
I am waiting to order an Anti Lift Kit to put on first then I will go for the geo setup, hopefully in a couple of weeks. Wheels don't look too bad at the moment, I also have some camber adjusting bolts to go on too so will get it all done at the same time. Hopefully see and feel a nice improvement after.

The standard bolts on the rear are not adjustable, so if you want to adjust them you will need new ones. One bolt per side, the top one. The front camber as standard is adjustable so not needed. I got two sets, one set for the rear and a new set for the front so all adjustments would match. Not sure if this is really important but thought it was a good idea. Aparently you can put two adjusting bolts on each strut and get double the adjustment but I just when for the one.

my rear end sits slightly lower than standard because i have a heavy sub and 2 amps and an mdf sheet in my boot, as well as the spare wheel and i.c water spray lol. would it sit too low if it were lowered on the teins?and ive got a front lip splitter, but im on 17s, would i catch it on speed bumps and the like?
