[JeffT]

Can anyone recommend shocks, springs for a TVR Vixen S3 or 2500? Spax part number?

Not to buy Spax would be a good start!

Ok I can not do that. What then? I can buy Koni Shocks but price not cheap.

Speak to Steve reid or Adrian Venn and buy a matched set of Avo's with matched springs of the correct rating. With an S3 you will be running a single spring rear so I would recomment between 185 - 200lbs all round for a reasonable fast road set up (dependant on how heavy you are)

Avos are as good or bad (depends on your perception)as Spax.

Quality is not cheap, buy the Konis.

I bought mine from Adrian Venn. They are Avo's but he has a different set up.
Best thing to do is to call him and he will explain.
