WUZ - that's exactly where I am. Want an improvement, but don't kit the track anything like enough.

And 7-foot pre-empted my question... where oh where do you find STi6/P1 dampers and P1 springs cos I want them.
I was considering just Eibach ProKit, but as my dampers are now 30k miles old why not swap them out for better items, too...

I think tonight answered this but by ****, your car gets along the straights .

thank god for laminated screens too, or that stone would have had my head off

I think once the suspension is sorted you need to get a speedo that can keep up, it is unpractical to have to stop the bikers and ask the speed all the time

It depends how much you want to spend at the end of the day I suppose!

I have had a similar dilemma for the past god knows how long looked at Cusco, HKS, Proflex, Ohlins etc etc.

Again im very "under knowledged" when it comes to suspension so I wanted something that was easy to fit, didnt have millions of adjustments for me to bugger up, didnt need servicing every five mins etc (in other words its like I wanted the ideal woman who never exists lol). In the end I have decided to go for Ohlins

Getting them fitted tomorrow & set up so will report if they really are as good as people say they are

Well its fitted now

But the bloody cars off the road for the moment lol.

But the 40 mile drive home was all on the country roads so I got to "bed it in" a bit

Already I can feel its so much more progressive than the old HKS Hyper coilovers which had a setting of hard, rock hard or plain stupid hard

When its back I shall explore it a but more & report back to you
