D2's listed on ebay ........... HERE! You guys that have them, what do you think of them? I have had coil overs before but a long time ago and on an Integrale, I'm not a fan of Bilsteins and the few other kits available seem very expensive considering the price of the D2's. G

Nigel, I know there has been a bit of progress on the Gaz kits so you might want to chase that one up too. Speak to either sparco or suba.

The adjustable top mounts, should you want them are available.
I'm on the verge here, have we an idea of price for the set this thread is covering yet?

one word of caution with these fan-dangled top plates Nigel, check that they KEEP the coops original Caster is still the same, as the coop will handle like a pi, irrespective of your CAMBER settings. I only found this out ages ago, when, yes, I did put the two top mounts on actually back to front, which put the caster all over the shop, certainly confused Elite to no avail! worth checking before you part with any cash, or else, you'll end up with a worse handling car on turn in

Jimbo,
Can any of the proposed kits or variants of the kits be tailored into something which will provide superior road quality over a standard coupe?
Also, are the proposed top mounts going to be significantly stronger than the standard ones? They seem to be a weak point IMO.
Cheers
Scott

IIRC Apex and Kev are up near Bradford In that case, 007 almost certainly won't be able to do it due to geographical location. Depending when and how long they need a coop for, I may be able to "donate" mine for a couple of days (totally standard suspension setup).

PMSL It's been made clear to both of us that after the last GB we were involved in, it's best for everyone if we're not seen together.

Jimbo, just reviving this one Are you still saying whilst the renewal of the top mounts for the Bravo ones have made a significant difference, they still are not as good as the LEDA gear ? I am almost at the stage where I need to remove all alloys for a refurb & was going to have mine either refurbed / simply buy a new set ( I suppose i can treat the car after 9 years ! ) cheers, Taz

Just to put a spanner in the works guys i am nearly finished in the development of the Gaz race set-up (Suba has the road set-up) and i think between us we will have a very good option at a competitive price.
I will be at Snetterton on Oct 12th for the final round of Time Attack where anyone is welcome to have a look over where i am at just now.
