The grub screws can seize and make your life a mare :( voe
Sounds like thats a very hard spring if you arent getting much drop AND it goes loose when jacked up. Helpers are all well and good but sadly on the nova most touch the tyre, and also you ADD 20-30mm to your ride hight.
Correct top mounts and different springs should see you right

Can anyone confirm what spring rate I need for e16se engined nova. ? Cheers

The ones that cone with them should be fine

Grub screw and one ring is fine.
It may be a mix of spring rate and length, take them off and check for a marking on the end and measure their length.
250lb or there abouts is probably nice on a 1.6, you can get away with a 6" spring to clear the tyre and run helpers if you don't want to let the spring go loose but it's no biggie really.

Ok will measure the springs and see. Don't think I will bother with helpers.
