zippy Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Has `no-one` got the highsports...? If so, lemme know Dunno if I can justify £620 on the suspension. Was pushing it a bit with £460 for the highsports (as I got the service, brakes & maybe zorst this month).Not ordered yet, cos totally not wanting to get the wrong thing!Come on Larsson!

twisty b-road Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 Personally I reckon you don't need the damping adjustables you'll only set them to the hardest setting but anyway.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacZippy Posted June 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 Thanks boys, this is more like it!I've put off ordering for now, cos really dont want to make a mistake - but I'm still mainly thinking about the FK highsport's. I'm pretty clueless on the whole coilover thing, so glad of any advice, but £450 - £500 is really my limit, & I just want the best I can for that kinda money.I want my car to be able to stay on the road & stop quickly before I make it go any faster.
