Lowering - a small problem!

Forgive me if I'm repeating a previous post but im in the British Army based in Osnabruck, Germany and i dont get a lot of time to read all the posts on this forum.

Ive had my 323F / Lantis (british spec) lowered 40mm with a set of springs and its on 17" Khan RSRs but as this car isnt popular at all in England finding anything at all for it is a nightmare. Everywhere ive been ive been told ill need to either import stuff or get whatever i want custom made - expensive i imagine...im a soldier, i dont get popstar wages!

Does anyone know where i can get a set of uprated dampers from to compliment my springs? Any ideas on general import costs would be helpful as well.

Again, i apologize if ive missed something blatantly obvious or have repeated a previously asked question - i simply dont have the time to read everything on these forums. Ive only just found this place after about five days of searching!!

Thanks.

The inserts are £98 each mate. I have looked around too :P Wouldn't mind seeing some pics of your car mate. By the way we have our own british forums www.maz323f.co.uk and also a yahoo groups page
