I think you could be right, when I started rebuilding mine 5 years ago things were difficult enough then. Tbh I am surprised that mine hasn't sold yet as all the stuff that's a PITA is done.

I have the original zeta R, they are equivalent of the regular cheap types. I have just done a back to back test versus good condition standard suspension on lowering springs and the coilovers are better.
The newer version are the CRD ones and they are supposed to be a lot better than mine.

Thanks mate, its worth trying as if you dont want cheaper coilovers or cant or wont spend 2-3 k on good ones it could be a way of refreshing the standard style stuff.
Did some more testing today, fitted the other side and took it out for a run. It feels softer as you might expect and nicer on the road. Fist impressions of the handling are that it seems pretty good without too much roll, I suspect ultimate grip and roll would be worse but I am focusing on road...
Not had a full handling test yet just a slow drive over some rough ground to check clearance and shock movement etc. i will report back when I have done some more testing.
I removed the roll bar mount from a set of my old rears and welded them on to the new KYB shocks. I have test fitted one today and have achieved a rear ride height of 345mm and after some light testing seems to be fine. I will continue with my testing and report results but for now here are some...
I obtained some rear shock absorbers off a different model that were new and compared the resistance, bore and throw length of the shock. These were the same. The spring perch was higher on the new one (about 10mm) and the roll bar mount different.
