Worth having?

Can it be retrofitted?

If so how much?

Google answers two of the three questions.

http://www.walkinshawperformance.co.uk/wp/uk/produ...

So is it worthwhile, for just under a grand?



Now the long shot.
Is it available for Monaro? (Guessing not) As I suspect monaro shocks look like they might fit an omega. I have a project on going.

...like I said, a long shot. smile

I had MRC on my old Mitsubishi GTO with aftermarket Teins and their version called EDFC.

So even if you can't have the GM version there are other alternatives on the market smile

That link is just for the springs.

You need the mrc the first place.

No retrofit I'd suggest as it's built into bcm, controls wiring etc..

Just buy a gts or e3 etc

On VE the rear floor is different on MRC cars.

I think VF is the same.

It's no where near soft, track mode is epic.

Don't knock until you've been out in be with MRC, knocks spots off the Pedders set up on the Monaro!

Is it not just one more expensive thing to go wrong? We're the pedders not fully adjustable coil overs?
