    just drop it on 60mm springs mate if your not changing the engine to a 2ltr yet, thats what mines on an it works a treat, cheaper aswell.

    looks solid mate, dont just use springs to lower it though , buy a used full set if you are trying to keep the costs down ,

    is it your first motor though, if it is then id suggest minimum mods , to help keep insurance down for the first couple of years really , worth it in the long run
