Pedders suspension fitted, what a transformation!
Discussion
Had the Pedders adjustable coil overs fitted today to my 2016 GT by the great pair of guys at GT101-cannot recommend them enough.
Amazing, best £800ish I've spent! Even on the Pirellis there is so much rear end grip now. The entire car feels so composed and settled, that horrible floaty sensation in fast corners has gone. Corners what feels like flat now and feels reminiscent of my previous F10 M5 and e90 M3 in terms of stability and ability to inspire confidence.

Yup straight from standard, no other (handling) changes made yet. Might get eibach anti roll bars in the future as I want to have it on track this summer.
Did consider lowering springs but my main aim was improving handling so opted for the Pedders as they give both. At the current setting the ride quality is fantastic as a further benefit.
The fact that they are easily adjustable for bump and rebound appealed also.

No not fitted #manmaths If so bargain of century!
Having had them for a week now and been on a proper drive out with friends over the weekend, is it remarkable how much it has improved.
The ride is excellent, still softer then a Civic Type R I used to have, I'd put inbetween the Normal and Sport suspension settings of an M3.
I love the ride height, it passes the 911GT3 test whereby you cannot pass a finger between the rear tyre and wheel arch

Nice how does the damping feel? When you hit bumpy stuff or holes does it feel nicely damped or is still a little harsh/crashy like stock GT PP setup?Having had them for a week now and been on a proper drive out with friends over the weekend, is it remarkable how much it has improved.

You still finding you have a lot more grip and are you still running the GT101 settings or your own?
