Haha thanks guys ... Yeah just sent in request for the Vic Facebook group.
For the suspension ...was looking at some coil overs from pedders. Springs would be cheaper ... But I'm really particular about the ride height I want .. And coils would be easier to adjust right ?
Also what are the dimensions of the standard VRX rim? 18 x 7.5 ?

yeah, u cant adjust springs, 30mm is usually about it.
pedders might be a bit expensive, try just jap?
it tells u in your manual how wide your rims are, i`m not sure for a vrx

See I'm clueless at mechanics... So I way towards places like pedders cause they can do it all for me and keep it on warranty. But yeah ... Coil overs from them are expensive
I was considering new springs and ..keeping shocks as is till they go out..

nothing wrong with springs
i liked my kings.
i wanted lower though
mind u, with springs u shorten the travel so if u hit a humungous hole u can bust a seal, i did
