Finally picked up a pair of p80 awd rear springs.

Now to get some custom springs so I can do away with the obsolete nivomat shocks and fit some bilstein b4's

There are nivomats around second hand. You just need to contact the people who break them.

I purchased a "good working condition" set that weren't leaking and looked in good condition only to find once fitting them they were in a worse than the ones I removed.

The chance of finding a pair of good working condition set of nivomats for a 20+ year old car are slim. That's why I'm going down the route of uprated springs and bilstein b4 p80 fwd rear shocks
