Rally suspension

[Morton]

got bilstein yellows all round ...but have crappy g max springs they work ok and are low but the car rolls quite badly .making me loose grip and power as i have no diff. so need some high poundage springs that will fit on the bilsteins. would like something more competition and motorsport orientated... i was goin to get eibatch springs but then again they are also road springs ....and links or help with this would be great

What about the Eibach Sportline kit. bit more stiffer than the normal Prokit

[Morton]

Ill probably look into that but is there anything better that offers really 'track' poundage springs ?

[Nova_Tek]

you could go sor custom made springs from coilsprings69 on te interwebz

[Morton]

how much should i expect to pay for a set of custom made springs ? also what sort of poundage should i be after for tarmac/semi bumpy tarmac?

[Nova_Tek]

What engine you running up front? Not sure on poundage tbh but someone will be able to help you out.

[peester]

ide choose faulkners avo or coilsprings
Poundage wise, your looking around the 175-225lbs mark arent ya.
(225 being stiffer)

GMax/Eibach/Spacstix etc etc your looking in the wrong wrong place for "competition suspension" my friend.

Im sure theres a couple of diffrent spec yellow billies on the market, so i would make sure you have the compititon ones before getting springs to match.

[grooge]

what about tarmac springs from protec? phone them see what they recommend maybe??

[craig green]

GMAX will be terrible & it is almost laughable you are using them IMO.

Personally I would bet on the standard GTE/GSi stuff being quite a bit stiffer, its the height that is to blame for the roll. Get some custom ones made at coilsprings89 is my advice. I had some -50mm fronts a while back. Well made from large dia coil.

Either go custom, or get some 200ish poundage springs. Some pop up on eBay from time to time. Don't touch the low end road stuff - its worse than standard!

Are they thick tube billys you have? If not, get some and then look at the different rated inserts you can get to tune it towards tarmac. Ask a proper rally specialist with experience in novas about the damping rates as it can be a dark art sometimes. Also you will want to match your spring rates with your damping rates.

My local rally guy suggests std Yellow Billies & GMAX springs oddly, so that proves he knows feck all & thats for forest!!

ive just thought ive got some low, tough front springs only for sale.. ill check the poundage n that.. dont want much for them.
