I'm looking to upgrade the suspension on my classic turbo 2000. I'm looking for a fast road type setting.

Ideally I'm looking at the prodrive set up with the bilstein shocks and eibach springs. Though this is being a bit of a nightmare to get my hands on so I've also considered other makes and even coilovers

The trouble is i've heard so many different reviews about BC and Tein.

Anyone on here able to offer some opinions, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Andy

I had Tein coilovers on my 2005 newage. They were awesome on track and smooth roads, but on busted up country lanes you could end up skipping about a bit.

A mate was following me once and commented on how many times my rear tyres where visibly off the ground.

It really depends on what you are using the car for. Certainly for a daily I would suggest perhaps better springs etc, rather than coilovers.
