[Bazzon]

[sandy]

Depends on what your use is everyday road or road and trackday use.

Then don't buy cheap coilovers. Decent springs and none adjustable dampers will out perform cheap shite springs and dampers any day of the week - regardless of if you have height adjustable spring platforms or not.

kw have won more races are around the ring than any other suspension manufacturer and are very good gaz have supplied top gear with race coilovers for there 24h britcar race but are not as good as kw or ast but are cheeper

A very big wallet

 

[sandy]

haha ok well maybe i could just use a decent set of springs and dampers, maybe koni, spax?? dont wanna spend too much and its only for trackdays.

 

[broster@JAM-Sport]

bilstein pss9 from yozza would be a good option, but then if your comparing to ebay items it depends if they will be in buget....

 

[Fred@BTM]

^they're PSS10's now, and about £2.5K

 

[sandy]

hmm not spending that much lol!!

 

[Bazzon]

Proper suspension !

Either get some decent ones second hand or decent new springs/shocks.

Standard setup is quite good if working. My koni adjustables have been very good, upgrading to AST's soon (Group Buy)

 

[sandy]

nice! cheers for the replys ppl!

they are the same.. vmax and jamex use the same kits too from memory just rebranded. . All are unsuitable for what you need them for..

have you use them?

I read that KW have won may¿ny races around the ring but I am interested knowing how hard or easy is to the se those coils and if they are quite good to use on the street/back roads/track!!!
