Suspension

[hoyin]

So a refurb is £70 each.

New springs £75 front and rear £85 from Noble.

So total cost for each is around £150 - buying new is £250 each.

I assume that refurb will give me as good as new? So no need to splash the cash?

Thanks

Not cheap, but makes a heck of a lot of difference.

If only ... they won't supply to me .. as soon as I mention Noble they say they are not allowed to supply me direct I must buy through Noble.

Blahhhhh ...

Nitrons - too expensive and I don't need them. I don't track the car so it would be money wasted I think.

Can't say anything solid yet as nothing is concrete but when I had my Ultima I had a company make a set of shocks to my own spec which were adjustable , they were great bits of kit so have been in touch to see if they will make me a set for the Noble !! They now do 2 way adjustable so we are looking at a couple of things !!! The nice thing is they will do anything we want spec wise fir great money !!!

If we are looking at next year then i may well be interested

Once I take the car of the road I'm going to get it sorted , would think the kits would be ready buy jan/feb !!

Any chance you could share the name of the company Tux? I'd like a quote for something for mine thats not available either.

The springs on a Noble (at least on the ones over here...) are just standard straight racing-type linear rate springs - all you need to know are the length of the springs (uncompressed), the spring rate, and the diameter of your spring perches (probably 60mm). Then, you can order the springs from anyone who makes coilover springs - Eibach, H&R, etc. Shouldn't even have to tell them that the springs are for a Noble...
