That's why I took the teins off but the rb320 suspension feels alittle bouncy over bumps so I want more better handling but not break my **** at the same time and retain my splitter

I had them on my classic for a week before putting the Koni adjustables & Eibach springs back on.
They would be fantastic for track use but as has already been mentioned were way too hard for road use.

Thanks guys your advice is invaluable decision taken
Any more options best suspension for road use? So I can keep my eyes open or atleast start saving for some, the more I drive the car I get more confident with the drive and the more I want to throw it about but I know my current setup will only take so much
All advice appreciated thanks

Assuming your struts don't need rebuilding? - done more than 60k?
£100ish each for a rebuild at Bilstein.

Doesn't feel planted down enough if you know what I mean is there anything else you would recommend that is a good all rounder it feels light on B roads

You can't buy exetc coilovers for fast road/track anymore, only the Motorsport stuff at a great cost.
Unless you find some second hand and rebuild them at another great cost
Op, kW v3 was at top of my list, or even the blisteins b14/16.
But I'm thinking I might test the gt1 out as jerrick has offered me a no quibble offer.

Don't really want to say on here tbh.
Have you got them on? Or you waiting for order?
I'm not afraid of trying something new tbh, all the info sounds good on these and if they are sh1te then I'll say they crap and send em back, simple. But scooby owners tend to sway you away without even trying themselves.
On mlr I read a guy came 1st 3 times and all other reviews seem to be positive on other forums so, don't mind being a Guinea pig.
May even still opt for KWs yet.

Where did I say anything else is ****? I gave 3 options of which I would fit to my car. I refuse to fit **** to my car, so I'm hardly going to give him advice to fit bcs.... youre the one going on the defensive, I posted my experience and you started trying to pick holes in it
I forgot about the blisteins, that's a good shout by banny too.

I told you how much a rebuild cost by them. Not what I paid, as I didn't pay squat for it they still cost less even if I did pay for a rebuild than the gt1. But considering I didn't pay for it they were considerably cheaper..

The price tag is about where I wanted to be, up from the BC BR range but not 2k, which others mentioned are if topmounts are included. The B14's are very slightly cheaper but don't have adjustable damping which for me did swing it. Very much personal choice.
The GT1's look good and have been developed from MeisterR's experience of what they already have, so that has reassured me.

@InTurbo
"When speaking to Simon from chevron I explained to him that I wanted a compliant ride that can handle bumpy fast road use. He said the b14s are good with excellent handling, but even with him customising them with more bump travel and softer low speed bump they won't be as comfortable as the rb320 Bilsteins and for a fast road use there hard to beat."
