VXR8 suspension....

[maverick964_uk]

any good suspension kits out there for the VXR8? Mine has the 20" wheels but does need more advanced damping.
Something that can be electronically altered would be good.

Cant do electronically adjustable, but i can do these: www.monkfishperformance.co.uk/VXR8peddersextremexcoiloverkit.html

I have a set on our demonstrator if you want to try it out

and I have to say it makes a huge difference to the handling, especially when combined with the road response pack

wish I still had me car...

Any chance of a photo of your car as I can't find any with the 20" wheels

Must say I was a little dissapointed with the standard VXR8 handling on the first demo car I drove....felt very soft under underdamped particularly on fast B roads.

The Bathurst demo I then tried had the Walkinshaw coilovers and was a complete revelation in comparison...it was one of the main reasons why I chose it over the standard car. More controlled, firmer damping but didnt make the ride harsh at all.

Dont think its particularly cheap (£1700 fitted I think) but it does transform the handling and keep the warranty people happy.

+1 Agree with Areoresh, I have the adjustable Tein coilovers from Walkinshaw as fitted to the Bathurst on mine, originally the springs where too harsh but that problem was fixed and the new springs work fantastically.
