I also would not be suprised if a large majority of people who buy these adjustable kits at any price point actually experiment with them? I see siezed adjustment parts - be it height or damping - all the time?
No I haven't mate, but I would like too. Your right about the valving aspect costing extra money, if you received one of the early sets that were not quite right, you are looking at more £age to get them right, when they should have just been that way in the first place.
Ah the BTM brigade have arrived ;) lol
As you say warren, these issues should never have been there to start with, I had a ali front collar fail on mine on the second day of ownership and had to get over to tewkesbury to get a replacement. In ASTs defense all the replacement parts were free of...
Jay fitted stiff springs to a soft valved set IIRC?
I believe the intial batch that were produced were half finished in a rush (which was as you rightly point out was a mistake!) and the valving was not right for the 350lb springs, Curtis then addressed with with a stiff & soft set valved to...
I think I'll stick with my own experience of them, not your mates ;)
I think Tony may have used Jays car on incorrectly valved front shocks IIRC, I remember jay mentioning something along those lines, in fact I don't think THE original Burpspeed car had correctly valved front dampers and springs?
Personal opinion from an owners point of view - I think they provide excellent performance & adjustability, well matched springs and damping rates if correctly valved - providing OEM comfort on the road, with minimal roll and pitch under weight transfer - I couldn't ask for much more if I'm...
That would be awesome mike.
They are already anthracite Tim ;)
Just want to get it off as much as possible, in other words you won't find me messing about with sealants etc
Brick acid... speak to me?
Right I'm no detailing bod - bucket of water and a mitt is as about as far as I go!
I've picked up some 2118s that have been used shortly with some aggressive PF97 brake pads - subsequently the troughs around the rim are well caked up. I have got a lot of the surface 'sediment' off with...
Its a great size, push it to the back of the desk and its really comfortable to work with; massive 'canvas' to work on - I don't have one but I do have similar sized monitors :)
172 ph1 - the car that has defined the evolutionary route for the later models.
However as Inferno says the ph1 V6 is close behind for the sheer madness - something we will almost certainly never see again :(
Just to clarify. The K-tec equipment is different from the RStuner gear.
The RStuner is a fastchip mapping solution.
We use a 'master' unit created by Henk for ourselves, and we pay frequent visits to him at his RR facility in Holland to help develop the maps we apply to the the 1*2 cars.

They may have mis-worded it slightly wrong - ideally they should be cleaned every so often and re-oiled LIGHTLY with this:
