    Took the coilovers off again, Been sent back to Intrax to be re valved/custom springs added

    Currently running on a mates old suspesion, Cup dampers and H&R springs. Actually surprised at it and if i didn't do TD's i would probably go for that over coilovers. Stiffer than the stock setup but not crashy. Less body roll too.
     
  5. What coilovers have you got Jamie? I'd love some but for the amount of time I spend on track (virtually nil) I can't justify the cost.

  38. Paint looks slick mike,

    the rc5's are ace, perfect all rounder the rc6 i had after was massive overkill!
     
  39. Cheers, yea notice the difference with the pads, it's like night and day. Perfect.
     
  40. Did the yellowstuff come with the antisqueel pads on them?

    be interested if CL sorted the sizing and squeel out, i remember mine were fractionally too small so you heard them click when you were parking or reversing and got squeel at low speeds so i just broke harder lol

    got any vids of your exhaust yet?
