    Depends if you want it all new or second hand. Also depends if you want it all genuine or after market, and what else you want or need to replace at the same time. IMO, KYB Excel G's and King Spring Lows all round, replace any bushes that are worn with SuperPro ones, and get the SuperPro link pin kit as well. Or just go to the wreckers and get some FE2 or 2nd hand King Springs. Depends on your time and budget I guess.

    Well contact your local Holden spare parts section and get a quote for FE2 front and rear springs, front struts, and rear shocks. Include any bushes that you need to replace. You could skip on the shocks and struts if need be, as IMO, if the ones currently in your car are fine, it's probably not worth replacing them. New genuine are probably cheaper than after market.

    iv got a clunk coming from the suspension anywayz so something stuffed, so though why iv got to get tuffed replaced might aswell go all out and get what i want. I dont want my car scrapping along the ground, but std atm is just a lil to high and doesnt sit right to me. could any1 recommend something similar to FE2 just so i can weigh up my options, the look and feel of FE2 is pretty much what im after

    A while back,for my VS, I paid around $29 each for brand new front FE2 springs, and $42 each for brand new rear FE2 springs(live axle).I paid $99 each for the two new front FE2 struts,all from the local holden dealer..Theres also new bearings,bump stops etc that go up into the strut, these will also need replacing,these cost another $50 or thereabouts each side..
