Yeah we can do another group buy.  :wink:

Cheers Alex :happy2:

Bit of a noobish question, but you would you run these with stock suspension? Currently got H&R 20-25mm springs which im thinking of taking off and resorting to stock springs, as the tyres rub with any amount of hard corning

When I had my ED30 it was the first suspension mod I had done and can honestly say that it made a massive difference over the OEM ARBs. Zero downsides apart from the cost to fit. :happy2:

Some people have had issues with creaking, but mine were ok.


Hurdy, I thought you had the AutoTech items on the Ed30? I can't decide between Autotech and H&R at the moment.

He did have Autotech on the ED30.  The front bar snapped on the car they were then fitted to after the ED30.  That car is now on H&R's and the Autotech bars went in the bin.

The brackets and bushes are a tad pants on the Autotech.

Thanks Alex. Would you recommend Front and rear or just rear?

I have sent you an email about a few other bits and pieces, but appreciate you are super busy.
