Just had my suspension set up at Austec today, The good news is that the car feels much better, the other good news is that i need some new Springs and Shocks I have been waiting for an excuse to buy them for a while so...

What should i buy?? Nitrons sound good but are a bit pricey, Has anybody used Racing Red?

My use is pretty much fast road with the occasional track janut in the future and i don't mind spending the money as long as it's value for money.

I would welcome any views

Ah the ole how much money have you got.

I will spend what i need to, I'll be fitting the shocks myself so up to 1k or so for the parts, but i would rather spend less .

I have already done every bush on the car

Think Nitron have a new range. Check out their Website. Not allowed to post a link anymore. PANTS RULE.

I've looked at the Nitron Website,

They have NTR Sport, NTR Track and NTR Race, but i think the Sport is plenty expensive enough already!

I previously had Nitron's and they were OK, but I'll be looking at Racing Red or Gaz Gold this time round (different Chim).... may even get the Billie's rebuilt and save some cash.idea

Mind you two of the racing Nitrons lost their adjustment click after a couple of months and the o ring dust seals where the bolts run though were falling out!!
