Just two options really as the BTM is the new re-branded Yozza. KTEC would be a little loud for you I would have thought.

BTB stealth would be a little to noisy for you I would think. BTB Stealth Ninja is as quiet as a standard system but it's not a performance system so wouldn't be suitable for your intended route tuning wise. That leaves the BTM stealth as your best option I would have thought - good blend of...

Mine are great. Used for sprinting and hill climbing. Great service. All in stock and any spring rate you want. Deal direct for best service/price.

Yes, face it towards the engine, then rotate the bolt.

Back tracking to how you fitted them first… You put the tab facing inwards. Then rotated the bolt to adjust the camber - you will see the hub move accordingly. As it's maximum it should give 1.7 degrees. Make a note of the position of the arrow on the bolt head and do the same the other side...

Same for me. I've been really impressed with them (120 soft compound). Sadly I don't have a chance to warm them up properly when hill climbing and will need to switch to another brand super soft for next year. But the NS-2Rs will be staying as they are a great all rounder to drive on the roads...

Pretty straight forward - I can give you a demo on mine. PM me if you want to borrow it.

I've got a crows foot machined to fit (along with a few extensions) - worked well for me. Guess where I am?

I'm interested - only in Daventry also!

Bringing this back to topic... There is a really good chance of the Word Series returning next year to Silverstone!

Fred at BTM in Birmingham (airport area) I would have thought. Just had mine done by him, superb.

Looks like a good starting point for your project. Maybe look at some light 15" wheels at some point to give you more choice (and cheaper) tyres. Do you live in Daventry or work there?

Thanks.

I found some figures a while ago for a standard cup - to use as a reference point; 3.25 front / 5.7 kg/mm rear. Using an online converter I made that 182 / 319 lb/in. The rear spring is in-board so would I be correct in thinking that you have to use a 2:1 conversion on that figure to take into...

I imagine AVO suggested that setup as that's what I decided to go with from them a couple of months ago. My discipline is hill climbing so not quite the same demands as track days. I am tempted to up the rear spring rate to 225 and try that, although I can't say that I've notice much under steer...

I think most people put them in with the adjuster at the bottom. I can't imagine it matters. Must be difficult to adjust with it at the top?

For a road car I would go with the bilsteins. The avos would be better for track days. As for seizing, shouldn't run the avos through the winter. The bilsteins would be ok I would think.

I wanted a more motorsport orientated product and felt that the Bilstein were too road biased with no choice of spring rates. I came very close to going with BCs but was concerned over future maintenance/rebuild etc. I also felt that the inverted strut design is very beneficial having driven...

What I know; Rears are twin tube with 16 point adjustment for bump and rebound. Fronts are inverted monotube with 9 point adjustable for bump and rebound. Spring choice is free. Plenty of adjustment for lowering, I was only about a third of the way down the thread. More pics on my Facebook page...

Coilovers set roughly to Cooksport spring heights- still testing!

I have them and have only driven a short shakedown distance so far. What I can report is that the ability to absorb bumps and provide a quality of ride was remarkable. I've only gone with mild springs for hill climbing (300/175), but even so, I was very impressed. I found some ride height...

If you wanted to buy those wheels new (and in a specific fitment rather than multi like I have), you'll be looking at £1300 for a minimum order of 8. I think you can call that a bargain!

Not a bad first attempt at all John, and just as importantly, you kept it on the tarmac. Peter said it would take time to get a feel for the Porsche. He must have some deep pockets, 997 Cup race cars don't come cheap!

Went down to Prescott Hill Climb to watch John and Chris take part in the National B Licence Handicap challenge. Mixed weather made for a difficult debut with wet and dry practice followed by moist and wet final runs. A successful day and progressively quicker times despite the weather. Some...

No problem mate. The fact they are going into the right car made the decision to sell them a little easier - still hurts a little every time I see them in the garage - lol!

Anything you like! I've gone with 300 front and 175 rear for hill climbing to start with.

I've just checked, the AVO GTX kit is £1080. I took a few pics in the studio at work here... https://www.facebook.com/172refresh/photos/pcb.658960704170180/658960474170203/?type=1&theater

Best to contact them I would think. http://www.avouk.com

Avo only make one kit for the Clio currently - GTX. Height adjustable all round, mono tube inverted fronts, twin tube rears, damping adjustable for bump and rebound (single knob), choice of spring rates, in stock, available in cup fitting and on your doorstep in Northampton. Not cheap though -...

They are far more supportive - really hold you in well. The Recaro frames seem to have duplicate sets of holes in them. At a guess I would say that frames direct from Recaro are designed to fit both the aftermarket Recaros and OE spec. seats. Enough of this talk - you are talking me into keeping...
