I hate not having VXORG!

I really quickly need some pics of some NA VX std suspension [not mounted on the car]

Thanks

Chris

I have measured my suspension and one off an Exige S2 [mine on jacks so uncompressed and the exige ones are off]. I think they are very similar so might buy some. [bear in mind im on lowered springs]

Damper length [top to bottom of damper barrel]
- Exige 205mm - VX 245mm(to include tapered collar at top of barrel)
Suspension length [from top mount to bottom mount - inc spring and damper]
- Exige 390mm - VX 400mm
Mount width [where the bolt goes through]
- Exige 31mm - VX same

Rear Damper:-

Damper length [top to bottom of damper barrel]
- Exige 240mm - VX 280mm(to include tapered collar at top of barrel)
Suspension length [from top mount to bottom mount - inc spring and damper]
- Exige 450mm VX 460

Can't help you with any pictures i'm afraid, but good luck.

Which suspension are you potentially getting rid of? I might be interested (like the car ain't low enough already

I have Bilstein NA Shocks with uprated and shortened Eibach Prokit Springs [The springs cost me almost £200 and have only been on the car since Jan/Feb/1000 miles].

The only reason why im swapping is because I want it slightly lower and the S2 Exige susp looks like it will do it without spending 1.5k for Nitrons and fitting.

I love my current setup in terms of driveability so hope the Exige setup is as good!

Here is a pic when they were just fitted:-
