That's what i have at the minute Billy but not really upto the job tbh! Mind the dampers are old but the spring's are new So am at a loss what to go for!

I have coil-overs coz they where on the car when I bought it.. Lol

Depends on your budget. You could go for BC's as they're getting good reviews and wrap them in coil over covers to keep the road salt away. I had tein coil overs but they're primarily designed for smoother Japanese roads.

 

[Billy MR]

Yeah BC's quite good that's what I might go for in the future,

You track your car James? Might be Worthing spending a little more for ohlins etc...

It'll depend on what you want to use your car for

Agreed that would help I suppose! Mainly road use ie twisty B roads where I live and probably 6 track days a year if that! Budget is not really a problem if I intend on keeping the car for a few more years yet I guess!

 

[Steve220]

If budget is no issue, then Ohlins.

I have coil-overs coz they where on the car when I brought it.. Lol

Why do you say ohlins Steve?

 

[Steve220]

Why do you say ohlins Steve?

Because of their reviews both on and off track as well as their resistance to corrosion.

So are they really the daddy's then? What Ohlins would you recommend?

 

[supamario666]
