Yes, i know what you are saying, but like my coliovers, once i have it set right, it may aswell be fixed as my coilovers haven't been adjusted in 2 years!
My idea is to strenghten the arms to beam corners, also removing the coil pads at the same time, and then test it. that may be enough, if...
Might join you, however IMO Damons isn't worth the money, it's very expensive for the food quality, used to be very good, there are much better restaurants in Lincoln, I have to agree that Frankie and bennys is better! Thailand No1 is one of my favs, but right in the centre of the bailgate in...
Re: Those with ASTs - how much is the rear static drop? Looking for harder rear sprin
400 lbs springs from AST. AST's are true coilover on the rear, are the V2's or are they separate spring and damper like OE?
Re: Those with ASTs - how much is the rear static drop? Looking for harder rear sprin
surely you cannot compare V2's to AST's? won't the frequency change depending on the stiffness of the damper? my cup is on 400lbs rear springs, but my car is totally stripped and the rear only weighs about 300...
Like i said, the standard clutch is happy, till you start drag racing, and then standard power is enough to pop gearboxes/clutches! lol
at end of the day the clutch is rated to same torque as the gearbox, so guess what will go after the clutch, if you don't look after it!

And further to what other people put, no more hill starts...
Sorry Danny but it must have been fitted wrong then, because my paddle has done 10k, and there's not a spot of wear on it anywhere, when i last had to take off to refit my flywheel correctly after it came loose! ( it was fitted by GDI)
I have a Helix sprung 4 paddle clutch in mine, and it is no problem at all. other people have driven it too and never had any problems either. I had heard of horror stories, but don't believe everything you read.
If you wanna try my clutch, you are welcome to...............
Well, what a top day.
Free food, great peeps to chat to, and if it wasn't for the vee, i would have had the most power.
Cheers to Matt and Spanky for the RR, and big up Matt for getting me an extra 7 bhp ;)
Cheers to Tony and J for the food and the entertainment of you car on the rollers, lol...
