    Vehicle : Vectra SRi Dual Fuel NAV

    Trim : PreFace SRi

    Engine : 1.8 LPG

    Year : 53

    Default B4 all round or B6 all round? Advice Please.

    i didnt realise the massive price difference between the B4 and B6 kits.
    best price i have seen for B4 set is LMF @ £212.46 delivered.
    best price i have seen for B6 set is eBay @ £574 delivered.
    does anyone know if i can use the Eibach lowering springs on the B4's?

    PaZ!

    Yes to the eibach springs , also do an enquiry with www.eurocarparts.com for the bilsten dampers you should be able to undercut the LMF price .

    Ideal match for the Eibach springs would be the Eibach pro-shocks that are about 350 quid.

    The firmness of the ride would be inbetween the B4's and the B6's

    hey Simon, cheers for the offer. i have to go for B4's matey, aint really got a choice, the B6's cost 3x as much and i just cant afford it.

    if you see my other thread i think you'll agree i got a good deal, so overall im happy

    PaZ!

    B6's may be better than B4's, but the B4's are far superior to anything VX supply for the Vec/Sig, including the SRi spec.
