mini-valver
*High five*
i will give you some idea what the spec of the GDI coiover kit
they are Leda strut castings
they are 24 peace adjustable adjustable with three options
1 oil filled
2 oil and gas filled
3 oil and gas with a remote gas canister
they are made to what the customer requires
where i will be using toyo R888 tyres as they are a very soft tyre they require a different valve setup than standard road tyres and slicks
they have got Eibach springs and are fully height adjustable
i hope this gives people a beter idea about them
Whats the service behind them if the only man thats building them and knows how to build them leaves and decides he wants nothing to do with them!!! Bit like leda themselves!!! Id be concerned

Sounds like my ledas .
Pmsl at the different valves for different tyres.
Souped Clio versus FQ 340. In a standing start scenario the poor Clio will be wasted. How could it be any different? The poor wee b**ch does'nt have the traction. If I'd a had the cash I'd a bought the 340. I did'nt so had to settle for second best. lol
got any pic's or details ?they would not be the new coilover kit that a Mr fish is bringing out would it ?
There not anything to do with Mr Fish im afraid!
lol @ double team... anyone else spot the irony? I know Mark wont, but I mean anyone capable of blowing their own nose
My team mate isnt a backward numpty who cant spell.
Have you had a boost wiv any 400bhp scoobys tonight, innit.....

Andy will be making them he is having his bloke do mine as he is off on holiday
any decent suspension place will be able to service them

i remember there was a thread like this a little while ago.
why you would want to spend £1500+ for a set of coilovers on a road car, i don't know! FFS your not racing it, even for trackdays thats a bit excessive. Its not like you are looking for a 1/10th of a second to get it on pole position.
I bet those who do get the adjustable coilovers, haven't got the foggiest of how to set them up for the rebound and bump.
just get a set of springs which will lower the car and make it more stable and put the rest of the money towards a better car!
anyway thats my moan for this thread.

You think so??? What happens if you need to replace something inside thats been custom made and they dont have the machinery to make that part etc etc!!!!!!

no i don't have a data logger but then i don't want to know how well i was doing each time i go out my data logger is how fast Steve and Phil catch me in there BM and also how fast i am compered with other cars .lol, homer (sorry forgot your name), your a good bloke, but i think this is b****cks!
your not exactly doing a qualifying session and then a race. if you want to do stuff like this then i suggest you buy a race car and go racing, then those tenths will come in handy.
i know how to adjust them too, just turn the bloody rebound or bump valve! what it does though on the other hand, for better or worse, do you really think you can say to yourself that the car was much better through any particular corner. did it oversteer more or did it understeer more? was I faster or was i slower? THE ANSWER IS NO.
Reason: firstly your not consistent through each corner and every lap on a track day. secondly you do not have a lap timer/data logger (like i do) so you will never know!
lolsorry fellas,,but what was the question again?
*High five*
you are quite right fella. The only thing I'd like to know is if he did actually call GDI or got an Asian pal to call in using a dodgy fake accent, as I'm curious to know if he had the balls to do it... I'm leaning towards he asked someone else at the moment, as I dont think he has it in him.

hmm, odd... must have been someone else that called up on the same day asking the exact same question from a withheld number... lol

Although we have the occasional banter on the forum I always thought it was tongue in cheek? This is more serious though IMO.
I would prefer to do this through the mods if thats OK with you?

Rumbled about what?
Like I said I have reported this to the moderators I dont approve of being accused of something like this on a public forum. Maybe it would be better if you refrained from posting here aswell?

I like TheJesus better then you I think. At least he has some imagination. So TheDetailer (Is that something to do with cleaning cars?) why dont you like me? I am a nice guy once you get to know me.
