Best setup

Postby Turbloide2 on Sun Jul 22, 2007 1:34 pm

Hi all im in the process of getting all the suspension parts together for the car consisiting of- Gaz coilovers, fully polybushed, new rack, new lower arms, new top mounts. ive done all new engine and box mounts.

Im wondering if any one has any info on what LBS springs would i be best getting for the coilovers ?

And also where i can take my car to have all the tracking, camber and caster set to make the car handle the best it can ?

Or any other factors or parts i can buy to improve the handleing ?

Thanks

well you seem to have all the bases covered with regards to suspension components. you could fit some strut braces which will stiffen up the car a treat.

you should be able to take it to any place that does tracking and get it done there. there isnt really a "high performance" tracking setup just get it done properly.

I'd assume a strut brace for a 16v or Rs1800 should fit! Try Sparco or OMP
