I've just spotted these on ebay as i'm after some new shock absorbers and unfortunatly my ca$h is allocated elsewhere :duh:

whaddya reckon?

eBay (http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180129378038&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.ebay.com.au%3A80%2F%3F_from%3 DR40%26_trksid%3Dm38%26_nkw%3D180129378038%26_saca t%3DSee-All-Categories%26_fvi%3D1&_rdc=1)

I really only use my car about 4k k's per year and I'm set on a new car next year so they don't have to be great

They're fine for stock application. I've been running them in both my Mk1s for a few years now with King springs also off e-bay.

The rears are going on one of them but I've been using it out on the track:)

I'd use them on a street car again, expect to get about 2-5 years out of them.

These are normally available through Bursons Car Parts from memory.
