the car had been lowered around 1.25 back and 1.25 front but the front spring collapsed to around 1.75 (are being replaced, thanx to a friend called warranty)
anyways since ive replaced the back springs with around a 2 inch drop ive been feeling the paint lines off the road through my seat  im thinking maybe the shocks are screwed (they have been driven on for 190,000 km) advice - much appreciated |

Yeah your struts are probably in bad shape. If your spring collapsed, you should get them to cover the strut replacement too.
With that much drop, you will feel the road a lot though. As far as I know, your only options are KYB GR2s or Koni Yellows. The Konis are pretty pricey. Also, you might want to ignore Doug's "advice." Shipping to .au might make them cost a bit more than $200 (American).
