I don't think £360-440 for a set of springs and coilovers is too much to ask. I know people will say it's not 'locost' and it's alot of money to pay, but last time I looked a half reasonable set of wheels and rubber was £300+, full set of fibre glass body work was £600-700+, IVA £450. The book is called 'build a car on a budget' not 'build a car for free'. I know some grasstrack racers that would'nt even use the base coilovers from the factory without the manufacturer having the cars corner weights first. You pay your money you make your choices it's up to you, but if at least you buy the right thing for the job in the first place you won't have to spend more money to correct it.
