however the bit I don't get with all of this suspension lark is wide difference in specs being suggested for the same car by different suppliers.. I would have thought that they would come to the same conclusion for the same application..e.g. fast road/track.. since the spring rate is pretty much determined from the geometry and then the weight of the car to give you the frequency.. I guess all the clever bit is in the valving.. as I said the KW's are not harsh.. having being in a Honda with aftermarket suspension.. I was rather worried what it might be like.
The only real negative versus the Honda system is driving on very slow speed bumpy roads.. you have to brace you right foot to avoid inducing oscillations on the accelerator pedal.

37 DTG!!!
Any joy with the new sticker yet, Darren? I still reckon we keep the design from last year, but change the colours around.
Took the car for a blast in the sunshine yesterday and the LSB seems to be getting used to my driving - she only felt carsick after 45 minutes. Hurrah.

Neil555 - welcome onboard, matey!
PS my fiancee's passport is now (finally!) on the way here from SA, so fingers crossed that it doesn't go AWOL and all the red tape can be cut through in the next five weeks!
