Sportlines / 172 Cup springs

[Birdthom]

OK - I've just fitted sportlines to my 172 cup and I'm not blown away but I'm pretty impressed - they don't seem any stiffer but give a better quality ride than the standard springs - maybe it's because they weigh a ton! They have yet to settle and I haven't taken it on track with the new springs, but I'm pretty hopeful.

How much are my old cup springs worth on ebay btw? they're in good nick.

Cheers

Tom.

I'd prefere stock over any different springs so cannot realy fairly comment.

You should get between 20 and 30 notes for them on ebay

Cheers. The springs haven't settled yet so no point posting pics. A bit lower at the front already but they were only fitted yesterday so I think they'll have a way to go yet.

Sportlines do offer a better ride than the standard springs IMO - just feels a little bit more civilised. Can't comment on cornering etc as I haven't pushed it yet.
