   Good luck mate, but i have heard that they arent too safe. Very nasty area of the car to go wrong.
   
   Ive seen them on the bay from time to time though, usually about a 100 notes

   You looked into axle conversions? Dunno how much it would be but theres saxos getting stacked very often at the moment so there must be a good supply of em

    nah m8 you can get some descent wheels!
    
    you will have to have a new rear axel for the back and at front you will have to change each strut, you might aswell then get a vtr axel and have disc brakes at the back then improve your breaking hell alot especailly in 1.1 be awesome! dave said above if you done the work yourself you could probally get it done for about 150 get parts scrappy like its not massively hard to do yourself as i had to change rear axel on mine and took struts off when lowering ! with help me bro inlaw of course! although done the struts myself! :
