[drhowser]

mine took about five weeks, but they were ordered from the competition department at the start of racing season, so they were probably at the bottom of the list.

Beware of these, Mark's rear dampers knocked like fook and had NO travel. The fronts feel uber nice though!

Use the search tool before buying! that's the best piece of modding advice ever imo, speaking from experience

 

[Middo]

fronts = perfect

rears = spring is linear with no movement so therefore the damper has zero movement making them extremely uncomfortable. rattle like fook due to the rose joint mechanism joining the damper to the axle.

and to top it all the rear only lowers a MAXIMUM of 15mm. the 25mm they state it rubbish

 

[Ryan k]

I posted a thread bout it lol

 

[Ryan k]

So do you have to get custom springs at the back??

 

[tommyboy]

lol. did Middo post in the thread and tell you all that? might have helped..

 

[Ryan k]

Nope lmao

 

[tommyboy]

Nope lmao

 

[mini-valver]

Told you!
We changed his Rear dampers AND springs to koni yellow's and Sportlines.

As above, fronts are really good but the back's are utter poo

 

[Middo]

you can go for custom springs but it doesnt change the fact the dampers still have zero, and mini-valver will vouch for it, travel.

so ive had to replace the springs on the back with sportlines and the dampers with koni yellows to retain the flexibility of damper adjusability to go with the fronts.

 

[Ryan k]

So it looks like i will be changing back then lol

 

[Middo]

bilstein if i had the money again...
