Can someone recommend a set of springs and shock absorbers for my 1.8 hatch. I would like something that would give me a standard SRI look.

Thanks

SRi springs are approximately 20mm lower than standard springs.

Eibach do -30mm kits, which will probably be the closest thing to the standard SRi look:

As for dampers take your pick. GAZ, Koni and Bilstein are all great.

Set of SRi springs here, removed from a 1991 40k mile car and a brand new pair of GM front shocks to.

Concur, however with shockers. look at KYB Ultra's if you don't want to spend alot.
