Re: lowering springs

Right so mines a GH. will starion front struts still fit in so that i can run starion brakes?

I've tracked down an nz manufacturer who lists lowering springs for the Sigma GE-GH Sedan & Scorpion which is good!

And for the record...no, im not made of money....if i were.....there'd be a sigma running in Top Doorslammer or at least in Comp Eliminator as a AA/G car!!!
I'm pretty sure if you were made of money sigma's would be the last car you'd drive.
