I payed $240 for the same springs. For camber, a few shims were inserted. Although I still havn't gotten a wheel alignment yet(its been almost 3 months). I think I should really go do it soon :lol:

The car looks good mate. I find its low enough to look good, but not bashing the car into everything. Except for a few driveways and the front bar :(

Well first stage of my mods are finally completed, she's now lowered on King Springs, SSL's at the rear SL's at the front and I am very happy with the result.

It has stopped alot of the body roll, and at the same time pretty much kept a comfortable ride. There is a mild difference, but nothing like I have seen and experienced before. (Fully sik moit wif de cut springs moit!)

Overall I am very happy with it and it looks a hell of a lot better.

Here are some pics:

Hello,

Do you mind telling me what it cost? Also how long it took.

I would like to get that done to my car.

Do you have any code numbers or anything.

I am in NZ so there wouldnt be many done.

Interested to see how the car handles afterwards.

Thanks

Gavin I picked up my springs from another forum member. I think they are about $300 odd new (not fitted), try here to get more info:

I would suggest you search around, get quotes which will give you the right idea and direction to go.

I do not have any numbers the only thing they indicated were that they are SL and SSL springs specifically for the BA XR.

I got them fitted by Midas down the road from my house, believe it or not they were the cheapest at $200, that also included a wheel alignment, plus he put on another exhaust system I supplied at no charge. Everyone else I had quotes from were $300 plus, so he has my business from now on.

As I said shop around for your springs, new or second hand as the prices vary, you may be able to get then sent over from Aus in the post then get them fitted by your own place over there.

You must get a wheel alignment when you get it done as you are dramatically changing the camber/aligment of you wheels.

Thanks for your help hot answer. Couldnt have asked for more.

Is the ride any harder? I like the ride of the BA and dont want to get a sore backside like I used to in my old AU XR.

Just one other thing. How many inches do you reckon the car has been lowered with those springs. Bit hard to tell as the light conditions are different in the äfter Photo"" you have put on. Looks like a couple if inches when you compare wheel arch views?
