B10s are top of the range

if your doing trackday regular would agree but otherwise decent dampers and springs are all you need


coilovers at present seem to be like splitfire plugs in the 90s the in thing to have but no real benefit especialy not the cheap crap kits

the previous post to me was listing the bilstein line up, i was adding that you get coilovers aswell:)

Pic below is the Big piston Bilsteins i had on my cav before i stripped it! Same principal as the nova with the thick tube pistons (basically the damper inside the body is upside down)! Much better that the thinner piston version and as said the black dmapers are really for OEM replacment!:thumb: Ironically i dont have any pics of the ones i have on the nova or the ones ive just fitted to the tigra, lol!!!

those front ones have replaceable inserts the same as the coilovers i have.

These are the ones you want, you cant see it but they are the large piston type as above.
