Hey all going to be getting new shocks and springs all round in the next week or two to replace the current superlows front lows back with shagged standard shocks.

Just wondering what people recommend i get done at the same time. I was thinking front strut brace but i have also heard people comment on front and rear sway bars being a worthy invesment.

Anyone have any suggestions on wether sway bars are are worth it or suggest other suspension/handling mods?

PS: my old springs will probably be up for sale if anyone is intersted, theyre Lovells.

Get new shocks. You're going to make your car dangerous with ****ty shocks and lowered springs.

My recommendations:

KYB twin tube shocks (for a budget)
Whiteline strut brace
Whiteline rear sway bar

The standard shocks with lowered springs wasn't my idaea, car came like that when i brought it from auction.

Would KYB's be worth it over Monroe GT's? Because my mechanic friend is getting the parts for me at trade price but im not sure if can get KYB easily at trade price.

Although I spose i could just get them through Philcom Rally since i live in the same suburb as them.

KYB are poo on magna's... really sloppy

get the GT gas shocks, much better

if you want a good idea, click my profile, and disregard the coilovers

best setup evaaaaaaaaaaaaar

I completely disagree with you there. The KYB's are great shocks. The 3rd gen ones must be bad. The 2nd gen ones are great.

what prices are we lookin at for the gt's on 2nd gens?

my magnadoodle only JUST passed rego cause my front shocks are gone, so yeah...

My friend can get fronts for $91 each (so thats $182 for a front pair) and $121 a pair for the rear.

He got me prices on springs aswell:
$107 a pair for Kings lows
$87 a pair for Industrial Springs (Aurora) lows
