well iv'e just trial fitted my gabs with some nice looking springs that i bought second hand a while ago, the car does feel a lot firmer on the road but i was hoping that it would of dropped it slightly lower because when i checked the ride height after fitting it has dropped a massive 5mm !!!!!!!!!!. so my question is should i just leave as is or drop it further and be done with it ?

yes everything looked pretty standard, theres still a fair gap between the arch and wheel of about 40 mm even with 17 inch rim's!

Leave as is, GABs & any standard stroke strut are best not lowered to much.
Worth investigating current springs though so know exacty what you got ...
Other factor is if main use is road, good suspension travel & sensible ride height is a huge plus in practicality & actual road handling too.
