   Where can you get these from? I know Kam sells the rear arb's the group A ones but cant see any front ones listed. Can it be done? If so where?
   
   Thanks

   You don't want a bigger front one, fit harder springs.

   problem solved, when you say hard, how hard? And i suppose this depends on my driving style and where i use the car, Tbh i want a mint handling saxo, comfort isnt really an issue but lets not make it shocking.
   
   Kam is on about getting some faulkners in to make a 45mm drop, they are 155lb i think. This is the sort of thing you mean?

   something like that. obviously you could always do better, but for that ballpark sort of money you won't get close to some 150-170lb faulkners, grpN billie fronts and sport rears.

   at the moment i have b8 sprints with the sportline spring, the b8s could handle the 155lbs?

   yeah they can, i used sprints with 160lb, i think grpN would damp them more adequately, it felt a tad underdamped.
