Suspension Choices
Discussion
I bought a set of nitrons with the eibach spring upgrade last autumn, £995+vat Tvrpower. Had them fitted at TGA (wolverhampton) along with all new rubber bushes and full geo setup. I was instantly more than pleased with the result. Last weekend i had the chance to try a damp evo triangle without too much traffic and the car performed better than i could have asked for.
Probably pointless to swim against the tide but I'm having ASTs fitted by Racing Green as we speak. They are supposedly specifically designed for TVRs, and cost about the same as Nitrons. I will be able to comment on them in a week or two but only in comparison to shot Billy's unfortunately and they had better be better than them!

I looked in to them and spoke to them over the phone , Some one was supposed to call me back when they had them in stock , time was getting on so went down the Nitron route never did get that call back hope it goes better for yourself.andydw said:

AST are afaik another maker who supply after market suspension. I suspect that they supply RG with 'classic' stuff. So I assume they have simply spec'd a shock with the right travel and valving? Is there any more data..?andydw said:

I have just brought Griff with AST,s and I must say the car handles superb, when you get the AST,s fitted to the Cerb you must give us your opinion, P.S still got my Cerb as well as the Griff, Griff is nice though 
Joo spitfire4v8 supplied me with a set of ProTechs after I told him what I wanted to do with 'em and they have been puuuuuuurfect

It will never happen and if it does take effect I will just take the TVR attitude "I never seen that memo". It worked for them why not us 
The EU RoadWorthiness thing will be OK - the worst outcome will be if you modify the car away from original spec then you will need to put it through a new MOT. To be honest thats actually quite sensible I think, it is a bit strange I can change the entire suspension in my garage and then drive it as if nothings changed.Gassing Station | Cerbera | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
