Which suspension and brakes?

[172boost]

Having had a bit of advice from Chris K, I want your opinions on best or most sensible brake and suspension upgrades for my 172.

 

[Fred@BTM]

whats the car used for? track? road? track and road? etc etc

 

[Weeman]

Fast road pads and normal disks I'd say for the brakes, no point mincing about with anything else

 

[172boost]

Car is used on road only!

 

[Weeman]

Then unless you drive like a loon, i would personally not bother with the brakes, same goes for suspension, your only going to see the best benefits on track, you'll fell it on the road, and it'll look better , but if it were me, i'd only do brake and suspension stuff, if i was tracking it on a regular basis

 

[Fred@BTM]

eibach sportlines, braided brake lines, decent fluid and EBC greens

that'll do it

 

[172boost]

yeah of course I drive like a loon! why buy a fast car if your not going to put your foot down in it every now and then? No seriously I don't drive like a loon but I do want to give it some stick every now and then.

budget?

 

[172boost]

£300-£500 suspension
£100-£300 brakes

Even cup packed 182's have too much body roll imho, however Eibach Sportlines for £135ish is all I'd change on suspension

Brakes, EBG Green front pads and brake bleed with decent fluid, brake lines possibly

Definatley!!! I can vouch for that too!!

£300-£500 suspension
£100-£300 brakes

Spent it all one H and R's or save it all for track days and ds2500s new lines and disks as and if you need them.
