Can anyone give me the open/closed lengths and spring rate for the S2? Also the Spring rate for the uprated set up would be helpful.

I was going to get AVO’s as they work out a lot cheaper than the GAZ shocks and they are still rate/height adjustable. I know you get what you pay for but will not be able to afford the GAZ one’s and AVO should be fine for road use.

Mmm bit put off now, the thing is the car grounds out if driven enthusiastically and I now have a squeaking that seem to be coming from the shock area, I can’t run to a Gaz set up and won’t be able to until summer next year, but I could stretch to Avo’s or Spax with the next few months, but I don’t want to waste my money or do any more damage.

Are they adjustable? If so maybe I could tweak them to see me through till, then I could get some Gaz one’s.

Mark how’s the car going, your new shocks ok still? When are you next going to the Kent meet, wouldn’t mind seeing the difference between standard and you set up. Have you had all the work done yet?

Well I’m just through the tunnel so pop over if you like.

Mid Kent meet this weekend? There was one on Sunday is there another one?

I’m now thinking just keep the standard set up for another six months then go with SPAX or AVO’s or if funds allow I’ll go Gaz, not sure yet, How long have Gaz been going? Have only heard of them in the last year.

Well if your in Greenwich I’m about 5 minutes away. I’ll probably go down to the Wednesday meet, not sure yet depends on how much Christmas shopping is left to do (all of it at the moment).
