So are coilovers for the BA still a ridiculous price or is there anywhere to get them with out the need to sell a kidney?

Hahahaha now that could be an option. Just I can't remember what shape the springs are. Or it'd be choppy, choppy hahahaha.

It's more for track suspension I was enquiring about the coilies. But it they are kidney selling expensive. I'll take a list of who wants anyone operated on to "donate" a few organs.

BC Racing V1s can be picked up for around £600 or so, maybe a tad more nowadays. D2s are rare as shit and cost more, though I don't like them :lol:

FK Highsports are still available in a couple of places, for around the £400 mark, which is about the same price as a set of decent lowering springs and shocks (which would be better to be honest!)

Hughie- I was thinking of springs and shocks, if only for the easy of replacement on the off chance of damage.
But the coilies give a much bigger scope for dialing in the car. Plus they give camber adjustment, I don't know if camber bolts would work that we'll with just shocks n springs.
Any one had good results from camber bolts?

AndyM has camber bolts on Meanie :roll: I believe he's on Koni shocks with Spax springs, but I could be wrong on those!

BC/D2/K-sport/Daiyama coilovers (very similar, made in same factory I believe) would all give much more adjustment obviously. FK aren't worth bothering with if you want performance :thumbleft:

Yeah im sure that's what Andy has. The koni shocks have adjustable dampening don't they? But are they discontinued?
Why could our f's not have been more popular, giving us more choice for aftermarket parts hahaha

I think they have a turny knob on the bottom, Andy should pipe up and fill in the blanks here! Madgers, get out of bed! :lol:

It's more fun to make your own bits :lol:

Hahaha I was also thinking about the self-fabrication route.

Andy might still be wrapped up in his duvet after his day yesterday mate. I'd give him time to come to terms with his Thursday adventures lol
