Shocks question

[triac]

I'm looking to upgrade my shocks on the T350. Mainly use the car for road driving, and alot of this is country lanes that can be somewhat bumpy at times.

What would you recommend the best shock option to be ?

Additionally any offering that doesn't break the bank is a bonus !

Racing Reds but then i would say that replaced mine with them today.

I had Nitrons fitted, they are a massive improvement over the standard shocks, depends on your budget, i believe Ohlins are one of the best you can buy but it depends on what you want them for.

Nitrons best option IMO, along with Bilsteins/Ohlins. Not cheapest but dampers have always been one of those items that you get what you pay for, and you can really tell the difference in ride comfort and grip.

Know many who've been disappointed with the cheaper options out there, for road and track.

Who is the best person to install/set the car up these days? (now Jools doesn't seem to be trading any more). I'll probably go Nitrons/appropriate springs once I get my T car. Last thing I want to be doing is mesing around adjusting ride height (std is perfect for me, maybe get another 1/4 inch up at front), or changing settings all the time.

I was really thinking my choice was between GAZ, RACING RED or PROTECH ?

- And yes also who is the best in East Anglia area to do a full Geo setup ?

You could try the guys at Scole engineering near Diss, they set mine up.

Nitrons are I understand best for track days, but they are particularly expensive so I've recently had Gaz Gold Professionals fitted to the Tam - makes a real difference.

Has anyone tried PROTECH's ?

I looked at those but would like to hear from those that have fitted them before I go bleeding edge on another product on behalf of the PH massive again.....

No, but Joo recommends them - it's either that or Nitrons, but I can't decide what I want....(or I can't decide whether i'll benefit from the extra £££s)
