As per the title guys and girls..
The car is currently in with Joe at the minute having various things done..including fitting new coilovers..
However I really don't know which way to go as per brand,spring rates etc etc crazy
I've read several threads and the knowledge and still can't decide...so here's your chance to help me decide.
I was considering FK's with bravo top mounts,but the more I read the more I can't make my mind up..

The car will predominantly be for 'fast road' as well as track..
If anybody can show me something that works..doesn't have 'issues' (am i asking too much?) That would be awesome.


Just to top it off,I need to make a decision pretty soon tongue

So for now,while I await your wise old words I shall read on!
Thanks in advance!
Jon

KW would be my choice given the issues with the rear springs on the BC kit.

There has never been a complaint on the KW kit.

KW are brilliant for an all round good kit.I used to use them on my car before i got more competitive and needed more adjustment.
For everyday and light track use im yet to drive a coupe with a better value for money package.

You can beat the D2's for the price. I know Genic has had a problem with one of his rear shocks but mine have been fantastic.

Even with my slight problem , I have to agree with Taffy, I really like the way mine handle and ride.
