Got a track related question? I'll try to answer.

Maybe shity was a little harsh, but i feel that they are holding me back, have tried to get them work the way I want all season, whit different springs and settings, and they aren't djust there
There isn't no magic setting that feels right on the compression, too flemse or to hard!
And under steer mid corner and over steer in exits.
+ when i dissembled them and did som overhaul on the bearings, I found out that the left front damper was much slower in and out in the piston on same settings.
There for I am done with this.
So really want to go for a set that's tested and proven, and a little more engineering hours in the back.
Did forget to calculate for the shipping and duty and tax
So the hard truth is that a coil over system for 2000$ may be the same price as the KW club sport with some discount over here, I think that if I get them through a buddy's company the KW cs2 is 2300$ something.

MCA Reds are all hand built by the guys who design, track and test them. They are all dyno tested before shipping also to my understanding. In America you have many options but in Australia (where MCA is based) You would literally be insane to buy anything else. For any competition level. In fact the guys who design it still hold a couple 86 lap records here locally on an E85 car through many days of testing. You'd be hard pressed to find a suspension setup as heavily tested. Send them an email, they usually get back to you within a couple of days depending on how busy they are doing. You may like what you see.

That I understand completely. I went with them because I wasn't sure if this was going to be a long term project so my initial decisions have erred on the side of $. I think you should grab that set of club sports for sure at that price.

Sounds really good!!!
But will look into the KWs for now

[Northwest86]

Yeah no problem. Just putting it out there since Over here they have a majority of the performance market but are relatively unheard of in road racing in the USA. With the dollar the way it is Australian products are fairly well priced.

Anyone running Nitron on this forum?
Seams pretty big in Europe.

That's way out of my price range
And if I go and spend that kind off money, I think I am better off whit som Öhlins TTX instead, do I have the support and rebuild and service, djust around the corner her back home in Sweden
But I am going to take a closer look at some KW club sport, I think that's were my focus is whit my price range

I'm running them on the Lotus. But I plan to go JRZ RS Pro on the 86 because JRZ got more knowledge of the platform.

I would choose Nitron R1 for sub 3k€ and JRZ RS Pro for sub 5k€.

R1 are very good in slow speed damping but need better high speed. That's what R3 is supposed to give with the 46mm piston.

I know I can get a really good price on KW club sport bak home her in Sweden, but I am not sure if I want to go there?
What about say Tein mono flex or RS-R club racer?
Running Yokohama AD08R for next season in 235 or 245 17"
So not running r-tires next year I deer, do i don't have the money to go up a class, and build a motor also, feels dumb running low power, when the rules says 420hp on rwd, and I wouldn't stand a chance.
So which suspension would you recommend, that I easily could adjust to semi slicks and FI for 2017?
Will adjust and buy appropriate sway bars also!!
Or is it a better choice for the 2000$ range

The KW V3/CS are at a different level from the MonoFlex or RS*R Club Racer. Get the KW.

Yes sir

[Fricke]

The only problem I'm having, is that I have to ask for a dispensation for 3way damper in my class sadly.
Only permitted whit 2way in the first 2 classes, and first in pro street, we are allowed 2 have 3way, and that's a pretty harsh class, where heavily modified Ferrari 458 speciale and Porsche 991 GT3 rs is the king alongside 600hp STI and so on
So better get that dispense and keep on going in the lower classes.

Question for you guys. I just ordered myself a set of coilovers that i will be installing in the spring and was wondering how much lower then stock can I go before I ruin the suspension geometry?? I will be getting LCA's in the rear to keep my alignment in spec is there anything else I should be getting?

Thanks guy

Absolutely no issues with P.mu Club Racer pads, BUT...I've been hypnotized by RR-Racing Sport kit in silver. Thinking of selling the front and rear pads and going with just RR-R Sport front kit.

Would I see similar/better performance (no fade, increased longevity, etc.) by going from P.mu CR pads to RR-R Sport kit front only? I would be lying if I said that the LOOK of the bigger rotor and caliper was not a factor in my decision.

I'm not forced to change out brakes as I have stock pads, and P.mu pads are only used for the track. I am aware that there are other proven brake upgrades available (AP Sprint Kit) but RR-R Sport kit seems like a good middle ground IFF it performs better than P.mu CR front and rear pads.
