well it'l get move to tech so i may as well answer.

erm right.

on a budget nothing beats g-max in my opinion. it's perfectly good quality for the price, stiff, does the trick. v.harsh ride quality tho

-40mm springs IMO are pointless, i had some and swiftly changed to -60mm.

-40mm is only good if your running big wheels (17's), or don't want to ever do any minor arch mods.

-40mm spings will soon knacker the standard shockers, to the point were they feel like blamonges. Mine went in roughly 4 months

Save up ?200 and get a -60mm g-max kit. Depending on your wheel size, offset and nova, you may need to do minor arch mods (DIY) to avoid rubbing, but you may be lucky enough to do none.

If you can save more money, get some better suspension , i have a Supersport kit and i'm perfectly happy with it, but i wouldn't mind a better kit TBH.

i'd say get a bilstein suspension kit, just as cheap as the g-max kit
