AU III XR8 new shocks

[GTENVY]

Guys I'm looking for new shocks/spring for the old AU III XR8 and just wanted some input from other that have done so as I have never upgraded suspension in an AU before. I've done Pedders sports ryder previously on a ED Sprint that I had and they were awesome. I've also done Koni yellows with kings on a EB XR6 and an EB XR8. I preferred the way the Sprint handled/rode with the Pedders so I just got a quote for supply only for them just for interest sake and nearly fell over.

I don't really want to go too much over $1500 but if I have to so be it.

Cheers in advance.
