Thank you for your replies. I’m going to start with replacing bump stops to see if that makes any difference. If it’s still crap I will replace the suspension with Coilovers. Am thinking BC BR’s after a bit of research.

Good point! Didn’t think of that, I will give it a try! Cheers!!!

Not running spacers. There is definitely an issue with it, a track marshal even came over and mentioned that the near side looks like it’s collapsing when braking and cornering.

I have a Whiteline ARB fitted. There is definitely something not right on the near side though as it’s fine cornering left but bottoms out cornering right. It’s just a budget track toy so don’t want to throw lots of money at it.

I have a 172 (non-cup) with Eibach Sportline springs. My shocks have given up and need replacing. I use the 172 as a daily drive but use it for a number of track days and am happy to sacrifice a bit of comfort for better track performance. My question is, are cup shocks the best way to go? And...

That’s brilliant. Thank you for your help

Thank you for quick reply. Will message him.
