Which coil-overs to buy?!

[Cerrone]

I'm looking at different coil-overs Which would suit me best! I'm only looking at a couple of trackdays a year not many and ones that would be good on everyday driving too! Iv got a ff 182, Any help would be grate cheers Cerrone!

You don't need coilovers etc for a track day.

I'd recomend not bothering and spending the money on track days/instruction the ride will be better.

Spax, H&R, Bilstein etc.
Avoid the cheap ones like Ktec, Vmaxx

It's also for the look! Iv got a far bit of experience on the track!!

Tweaked trophy set up?

 

[Cerrone]

Would this not be quite expensive?!

 

[James28]

Any decent setup will be toward the £1000 mark, due to being FF 182, limits the choice of coilovers unfortunately!
Spax are ~ £800, as are H&R iirc.

FK Konigsport.

Loved them on my Clio, and would definitely have them again!

Would avoid GAZ, bad experiences with them.

FK Königsports are not available in 60mm fitment afaik. H&R's are decent.

Would defo avoid the cheaper stuff, not alot of options as has been said, depends how much you want to spend...

All decent sets start at 800, and up from there.

Im in the same situation, but i think im gonna go for either sachs and springs or oe dampers and springs.

Unpinned Sashs with some sportlines/ custom springs front. Koni adjustables on the rear with Whiteline. You will be very surprised how brilliant this set up is. On a bouncy B-road or track it is so much fun! Not good for Lows though but Im sure you guy aren't tarts

i have the ktec ones for about £360 and i like them for everyday driving. looks alot better and feels alot better. i dont do trackdays though so dont know how they would cope. and another thing you cant get the front cambers to -1.5 which is abit s**t. managed only 1mm

What would be the cost of the parts for this kind of set-up in your experience?
