So as I cannot find Coilovers for the Daewoo anywhere I took matters in my own hands. The result is an adjustable suspension using my existing Monroe Schocks, some H&R 250 pound springs (200MM) and some threaded pipe and some more bits and bobs
Works like a dream - car is about 10mm lower on street tires and I can raise the front about 1 inch on race days to accommodate my drag slicks.

thats some bad ass ghetto suspension you got going there. nice work.
this now paves the way for everyone else struggling to get hold of "plug-n-play" adjustable suspension.
Cargo cultism is a beautiful thing as long as you never fall for it.
