coilovers

[shaneyboi35]

right guys im ordering my coilovers in the next week but i need a bit of advise,
should i pay out the bitt extra for the dampaning adjustable ones or is the fixed shock good enough?

what coilovers are you using on your novas and do i really need dampaning adjustable ones??
cheers

Who are you planning on buying from? If you sign up you get a rather large discount with Gaz coilovers.

[shaneyboi35]

well i have seen a few good looking pairs on rim style.
yes i was planning on signing up, what are the gaz coilovers they offer at discount?

[loggyboy]

Depends on the use. if you just want it for the looks then its pointless spending extra. but IMO if you like to be able to tweek your ride between comfort and performance then adjustabnle shocks are a good way to help out.

the pikey kits (less than £400) are false economy.

Absolute garbage;)

Tarmac cars shouldn't need remote reservoirs as much as something like a zumping gravel spec nova as they shouldn't be stroking as much beit with stiffer rates.

So with that in mind I wouldn't push to penske just get something moddest for around the 1K mark inc mounts & bolts etc.

I would recommend signing up to the club before you purchase a set :)

spax retail at £530+ iirc, so they dont fall below that price ;)

Or why not go the whole hog and comission Lotus to design and build your very own setup! lol

Spax RSX are wicked, very smooth on soft but more caperble than i need on track also :)

RSX for £300 ? ouch dont say that :(

[Benn]

You cant, well not through 'High St' retailers... Spax are pretty good, I wasnt referring to them.
