Could anyone tell me the TC price of MV6 LSC springs for a facelift front and rear?
Tradeclub search is liable to cause my laptop to fly through the nearest window at this rate.
Ignoring -30mm and -40mm aftermarket springs is there anyone else who does a -15mm to -20mm set of springs?

Don't think they're on TC :-\ :-\
And no... For that drop it's Vx only :'( :'(
-
Oh dear. :'(
Don't suppose you know the VX price?

One for Andy c I think.
Last I looked the rears where listed as 2.2 sport (same springs)
Fronts where listed as expected
Both where on tc, but that was a couple of years ago though.
They where difficult to find, and the updates to the tc web site have just about made it impossible. :(
-
I'll drop him a PM and post the prices on here. :y
-
Not seen anyone do -15mm drop except gm.
Lsc on the rear, and 30mm irmscher as Tb has(or maybe Stienmetz)at the front would work well btw. As a thought. :)

Good thought. :)
However, i've heard the Irmscher are quite hard and I have my old and not very wonderful back (and the 4000000000000000 pot holes around Solihull) to consider. I suppose ultimately it all comes down to ££££
-
Lsc springs are a good compromise, as you'd expect from gm.
In order of firmness ime;
Irmscher springs and shocks ( firmest )
Irmscher springs and b4 shocks
Stienmetz springs and b4 shocks ( Daz's experience here)
Eibach springs seem softer still relatively
Mv6 lsc
Standard

Elite with SL. ::)

Spoke to Andy C today.
The price for MV6 LSC springs front and rear is approx £330 + VAT and will need to be shipped from Germany.
So more than Eibach's but not by a huge amount.
So the choice for me will probably be between Eibach and GM MV6. I'm leaning towards Eibach but would appreciate anybodies input who has Eibach springs fitted. :y

I have elite SL springs on the back of the Holden.......

With standard non sl shocks? They ride very low and brake on the omega without sl. :(

iirc Pauls and h21 have the eibachs fitted.
On mine, as you know 30mm is out if spec at the rear, and had to raise it, not sure if the lpg tank affects it, probably. The front rubs the Irmscher bumper on the downside of speed bumps over 10mph. Although the ones near work are quite big. Speed cushions are no problem.
Lsc is safer if the roads are bad with speed bumps. Add in the rear set up issue, that might swing it for lsc...?

Holden is a couple of hundred kilos lighter than my LSC Omega.
and yes, it does ride a bit low.
