Hi,
I need the rear shocks and springs for a 2001 n/a.
Does anyone know if the turbo rear shocks are the same ?
Anyone thinking of upgrading their standard suspension and want to sell it on ?
Any help or contacts greatly appreciated...Many Thanks Paul

The VXT shocks are different - they have higher spring ratings due to the extra weight (tho they may still 'fit')

The curent shocks fitted are a yellow bilstein, - maybe thats standard Vauxhall fit ?
Is yours a Bilstein too and if so how much you looking for it. PM me if you wish. Thanks Paul.

Vxt shocks as Mandarin says have different spring rates because of the extra weight
If you are looking at second hand shocks I would go for a known pair as you may end up fitting one that has done 5k and one that has done 30k miles which would upset the balance.

Not sure if these are for the rear or fronts. I've asked him the question but no reply as yet.
