Lowering blocks to start with, tho if you're gonna have lots of hp a conversion to 5 link and coilovers is best.

Not from any model you'd have to custom build them. They're legal in england not sure about the laws in denmark?

At least not legal in Finland and as DK seem to be as much bitch in car laws, would guess not legal in DK either, but better check.

None of these are legal in Denmark, but depends on the man doing the MOT. Had once a Capri with X-pack mounted between the leaf springs and got it approved although illegal here, but what they dont know cant hurt them :lol:

Yeah, but you might get away with lowering blocks if you 'age' them a bit first so they don't stick out ;)
