Personally from my time in this club a few people will go with the B14 when people ask for recommendations. The way I see the FK coilover kit is it fits nicely in the price range between your K Tec, Weitec at say £300-500 area and your £800 plus B14, AST etc.
The dampers on the FK kit are made...
Really happy to finally have adjustable damping again, i liked the option on my Koni yellow sports suspension. Now i can dial them in to have the car set up just the way i want it :)
Super chuffed to come home to these earlier. After Venom bumping up their prices by £200 and telling me to wait 2-3 weeks i ordered these from europerformance last Wednesday, 5 days not including the weekend direct from Germany. Can't wait to fit them on the white project Clio 172 this weekend...
Somethings clearly not right, I've just rang europerformance and not only are they in stock but they can sell them to me for £650 inc delivery. Venom told me a 2-3 week wait, europerformance no later than 5 days!
The annoying thing is I ordered them yesterday and he confirmed the £577, today he's ringing me up to say they're £777. Effectively going up in price overnight.....
Ordered these yesterday, just had a phone call from Venom motorsport to say the FK prices have gone up £200 to £770! Kind of thrown a spanner in the works and now having to decide to dig deep or purchase something else.
He's offered me a Spax coilover kit for £515 which is adjustable height...
I thought about doing this on the phase 1, i'd have a CAF in the passenger side but thinking its a pain to swap the headlights over as it's not a dedicated track only car
Redundant wiring, so no:
Stereo and speaker wires, stereo, CD multichanger
Air con and heater control wires
Central locking
Electric windows (manual winders)
Airbag wiring and ECU
Rear wiper and wiring
Pollen filter and wiring in scuttle panel
Heater matrix
They tick all boxes: camber adjustment, ride height and damper adjustment too. All for a reasonable price... Win
Such a shame with the cup pack scenario
If you look at the pics there's no suspension, hubs, brakes etc. I've used the toolbox to prop the wheel up in the arch to give it the spacered look. My guess is i'd need 20-25mm spacers each side to give it this look, i've looked inside the arch and there's about 50-60mm of clearance between...
Been working on the white 172 putting parts on the shell, tonight i thought i'd mock up the metallic grey OZ up front to see how it would look. Sod it, i took a Speedline 2118 off the blue Clio and did the same mock up procedure.
If Carlsberg did coilovers and spacers......
