Not a very applicable sign on name Richard but I suppose you have to be a bit careful with the new car make, unless you are a bit boastful.

Call me to discuss group buy 01606 836369

Thanks Derek

Righty the price is £845 plus vat. Need three or more orders to get that discount. So that's two more needed then!

Derek has offered to set them up either in the NW or the South for £200 all in.

They would be very useful for those setting them up without Dereks help I suspect.

No doubt very useful, I would tend to use racing drivers to check my baselines as well.

I will dig them out, Andy Walsh spent some time with Andy Glovers car.
I have the settings for best(in his opinion) settings for track and road.
Also a tip is to mount the units upside down so the adjuster is at the top.
(before anyone says this wont work) This is how it was set up on Andrew's car and has worked very well on mine for the last 2 years.
Deffo worth getting it corner weighted at the same time.

Not uncommon to run monotubes upside down, it does however generally put the adjuster at the bottom for easy adjustment on the car.

for better unsprung weight the body end of the damper should be connected to the chassis . This improves wheel response to bumps etc !

Correct ( or so I was told) this means the dampers are "upside" down with the adjuster at the to, which on a noble ( with the clam up) makes them very easy to get to and adjust. Mounting them the other way turns it into a bit of a pig to adjust.
It must take me all of 1 min to adjust all 4.

does this include new springs- or just dampers ?

i have the m400 springs and setup on my gto3

it handles like a dream, excellent turn in and very positive feedback through the steering

probably more track biased - but i do like it that way

has anyone else tried the spring upgrade ?
