I've just ordered a set of the Weitecs 
Now, is there anything else i should change now i'm going to have the suspension off? Bearing in mind i won't have any 'specialist' tools, just the stuff required to change over the suspension

Replace your bushes with cupra bushes for sure!
Look at yorks build thread, first or second page for part numbers

Cheers Kenny, I'll get some ordered! Do you know how much they cost roughly and can I do them myself?

Phoned venom and they said try FK rear springs instead. I know the FKs go lower than the AP's (Drewbars car is lower than mine at the back lol) But Will they fit on the Ap's??
Thy rekon it will be about £50 for the rear springs.
