Well its time to upgrade and stiffen up the rear end of my car following the various other upgrades i have done on the car recently. I did a roll bar upgrade a couple of years ago which did stiffen the car but its now time to finish the suspension to deal with the other upgrades i have now done engine and transmission wise. So which rear shocks and adjustable springs should I go for, where to get them and what is the likely ball park costs guys?

Go for the best you can afford Chris. Have a chat with the guys at Track V Road as they are putting an upgrade package for wedge suspension. I put GAZ on mine which need re-valving as they are too stiff not the Golds but their cheaper version. If I had the funds I would go for their new mono tube which is gas filled. Ohlins and Nitrons are costly and would be considered the best on the market.

Why can't we have electronic dampers - best of both worlds?
