been looking at these as a temporary solution until i get some d2's but do the ones from the us fit uk cars as you keep the same shock so i would have thought they do.
Im talking about the £40 ones.
Thanks, Rich

Surely you'd be better just keeping the £40 and put it towards the d2's unless the car needs then now. Sorry just my 2p

Dont worry Richy, its ok to ask questions! Lets not make this sound like another certain forum shall we!
A mate of mine was riding on a set of these with some itr shocks! TBH they lasted preety well! After a while though they became hard to adjust as they didnt weather too well!

only gonna be on for a month hopefully, 2 max. Just want it a bit lower than it currently is and at £40 its worth the cash just to see what they're like. maybe useful to others in future.
They're on the way now anyway just need to sort some rear calipers now.

The search is utter useless tbh, most of the time it does bring up some rather random and useless infomation!

The search isn't that bad i don't think, i've certainly used it ok in the past... just usually need to remember that if you're searching for a two word term its best to put AND between the words, so...
"Stainless exhaust" brings up 998 matches whilst...
"Stainless AND exhaust" narrows it down to 110 matches.
