re..my broken spring.

[SOULCREW]

i just inspected my springs and they all look good...whats that all about ?

[SOULCREW]

take it all back..i acctually took the wheel off and it is indeed snapped

[ARAF]

How many threads do you need to talk to yourself on?

You said yesterday that another one had snapped, but couldn't see reference to you snapping one previously.

Now it isn't, then it is.......

I've got a full set of standard springs for a VXR8 if they are any use to you?

[SOULCREW]

When I read about them being Teins, I vaguely remember someone else (maybe GaryH?) having problems with them too, so felt bad about what I'd written. I was going to pull my post once I'd realised, but then felt that wouldn't be fair either. A bit more info from Soulcrew might have spared my blushes.

Hope they're not the one's on my GTS

They sound crappy !

You don't drive yours enough to worry about wear and tear!

Speaking of which, how're you getting on with the new beasty?

No, you're on HSV active dampers, aren't you?

The Teins were predominantly a suspension option on the Bathurst and Bathurst S.

Yes, but it has been lowered, Neil did mention the make the other weekend but can't remember now what he said, it might have been Bilstein now come to think of it?

true, but it's got 33K on the clock, things are bound to need replacing sooner or later!

Great thanks, PITA to keep clean but does look good

[stigmundfreud]

coilovers + st heavy car = its going to happen

Get a decent set of decent shocks and springs that will last the life of the car, or at least 8 years or more

Not good. Can you not hire a car for the wedding? And then use it for the track day?

Sorry for being harsh, the other day. I couldn't understand what you were getting at.
