PTP, or Motobuild, both have lowered springs for a 110.

I wouldn't recommend buying 110 springs from motobuilds. I did, only to find out that they are P.I. springs for a civic, so you can get the exactly same ones for about half that on ebay.

Mine lowered alot at the front, but didnt drop at all at the rear.

The 105, 110, 120 are all the same in regards to suspension it's only the dervs and 180's that differ due to the heavier lump up front

You could always sell your shocks and springs, people fit them to 400,45's as are an improvement, saves hassle of swapping springs.
