don't under any circumstance purchase Pedders. You'll be changing your suspension in a few months without question. I know, I've had 2 cars that went through the same experience. Koni's are very well suited to Aussie roads, and depending on how low you go, sometimes it's ok to keep the stock struts. in terms of just lowering springs, King springs are pretty decent.

So would you go for a full suspension setup with Whiteline? Or do they just have good swaybars?

I driven a car that had the whole handling kit from whiteline (CE lancer)

And it gripped to the road like crazy, the thing was really on rails.

Whiteline shocks are supposed to be Koni's anyway, and their swaybars, strut braces are great. I think their springs should be good too

i still remember stupid pedders charge me 1k for just replacing all brush, bush & drop link ... and i told them to check weight balance & alightment ... they did but it's totally out!

a week later i went to a friend suggest type place to check wheel balance, they said (which i can see) the front right wheel is overweight by 14!

anyone know any good place for checking suspension around parra? pedders did a rip off job and i'm still getting oversteer problem
