Very very nice Mark 
J's Racing used to use Crux before they switched to Showa SPL; I guess they're using Nitron now 
I'm using similar rate (12 kg/mm) Hyperco springs (+helper springs) on my ASM dampers and the ride is surprisingly compliant even with the bump and rebound turned up mid-way.
Chris.
The spec is very similar to the one they made for a well known Japanese tuning company, I am not sure if I can mention the name yet I will need to confirm this with Nitron. They did a back to back testing with the own spec kit made by Crux and the result was 1.2sec quicker at Tsukuba with the Nitron.
Chris.

Front wishbones are rusted and have siezed bushed, so Mr Dixon has brushed and painted them, and some Polybushes and new bolts / sleeves have appeared!

Chilled, no probs There's only a few people on here i'd let use it. Be interested to see what you think of it. Just not at the Ring...!
Irv, FI is for benders
Looking forward, once Dixon has done all the suspension / geo / brakes this week, it just needs Yokohamas fitting and it's good to go for the track season. Wing will be here the end of this month, and will probably just use OEM wheels for now.

Ah Dixon beat me to it
Will be interesting to see how these perform over the Tein stuff I had. I have lots of track footage to compare against, and a consistently average driver as a benchmark
Although my car will be a bit different to the last one with the diff and wing mods.

MB just read about you possibly removing the skirts etc.
Ever thought of pairing your rear wing with a diffuser? Would tie the bumper and skirts in well as from a side view the rear would look at a decent height in relation to the rest.

Hi R8, if i'm honest i'm not fussed about making the car look right, It's not a show car and anything I do will be for function. I just don't want it to look too modified if possible! Going to be difficult
