Stay KW or go Intrax / Moton...

[shane@mbtech]

Shimmy, I am going down the Nitron route-

We will see.... A, how they compare with your car at Oulton (we can drive eachothers cars to compare for a better comparison)
....................B, how they compare to the KW clubsport that I ran on my previous CSL.

I never had an issue with the KW, but I want to try something different.
Incidently the Nitron I had on my previous evo X seemed better than the KW clubsport on it now.

I was going to go the intrax route, but decided to try the Nitrons.

You pays your money- take your chance.

What are you running on your car? I know intrax, but what kit/spring rates etc.

To be honest that sounds pretty much perfect given the requirements in the first post.

:thumbs: So, it seems we've come full circle, a RARE moment on this forum I thank you :beer:

Mine are two way with steel damper bodies, I think 100F/50R prog springs. They do cope with kerbs very well.

Thanks toplad, but if I wanted standard look I think I'd be happy enough with STD susp. From what I can remember anyway it was more capable than me.

Hi again, the bilstein dampers can be teamed with different springs, paired with intrax springs, your car will be lower than a crack heads morals, paired with oem springs the car will have same ride height, you have choice
As you mentioned in your first post, your car isn't going to be tracked so spending a fortunate on some top notch suspension is pointless.
I've been looking at different suspensions options lately and would probably prefer brand new oem with slightly stiffer front springs to lessen dive under braking and give more direct feeling/connection. Can this be done anyone?
It might not be the fastest around the track, but I only do a handful of TD's a year and I find oem pretty good 99% of the time.

The very ones you're always keen to organise :gayfight: :birdman:
FYI... there's absolutely nothing wrong with PSS10 for road or track :smokin: it's like having brand spanking NEW OEM CSL suspension (already a great bit of kit :smokin: ) with the advantage of ride height and rebound adjust-ability :supz:

Where can I get intrax springs? and an idea on price?

Also, whats the spring rates on OEM? KW doesnt seem to have one as its a progressive spring.

I have no idea what spring rate OEM is, perhaps one the guru's might know???

I've asked before but never had a reply! Going by my Intrax I'd have a shot at 90/45

Nah, remember that the rear springs are in a different place on OEM so different leverage.

[shane@mbtech]

75 front 170 rear I reckon.

Good point, rears will be firmer than I said :whistle:
