rear damper repacement

[sambb]

Oh yeah the only reason I was going to do the rears seperately was because I need to do them now and they are quick, cheap and easy to do but the fronts were always to follow.
No I'm not keen to go low eg H&R 30mm drop low because going that low generally always means a substantial increase in spring rate and for the rough Sydney national park type of roads that I love to punt the car through it just won't work for me. If down the track I do decide to go lower, I will only go slightly lower at the back (I definitely would like to test the theories of the Shine racing guys from the "Does your VAG handle?" thread in the suspension section) so there would be little point going for coilovers. I think I'd rather stay high quality with conventional strut/coil setup.
But I am hearing you - the dollars for these units does make me wince a bit and I'm not sure how I could source them cheaper!
