Looking at getting these springs :-
http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/ ... tml?id=486
I know its only a 30-40mm drop but i have to get past ridiculous speed bumps and certain country roads !!
Just one question though - do i need to get new shocks aswell ? or can iget away with just replacing the springs ??
any help is greatly appreciated !!

Mines lower 100mm and doesnt have bother with speedbumps unless ive got passengers, u just need to go slow. It easily possible to go 60mm without any problems...
I would go for shocks if your getting springs, not because you have to, but because they work better. My suspension absorbs pot hole increadibly well so i dont need to worry about it.
I would consider getting these:

They are exactly the same as all the other suspension setups for the 6n2, just not branded with that extra price tag. I know of about 5 people with this kit and they are superb.
They are also adjustable at the rear, so u can have 40mm rear, 60mm front incase u need to have alot of passengers or whatever.
Gives u some freedom.
