Best suspension / coilovers for road use

[CiderFex]

I personally think the "drip modding" is the best option. You get to feel how each single mod actually effects the car and it also helps lower the chances of them being detected.

I agree with this normally - but when it comes to the suspension, the new dampers won't work at their best if there's tired parts elsewhere; also you don't want to pay for labour twice - when you've got the subframe etc off, you might as well do everything when you're there

Group buy on MT at the moment on the new MeisterR ZetaCRD+ at £660.

Any experience here? It seems there were issues with knocking, but fixed now.

It appears their ride height adjustment is in the body of the shock, rather than compressing the spring. Is this better than compressing the spring?

Absolutely - as you compress the spring, you lose travel and make it stiffer

Thanks Rob, trying to find what their ride height adjustment is, but really struggling. Do you have any idea please?

Because of my clown car 15" wheel / tyre combo which has already lowered my car 20mm, I'm looking for the ability to keep the ride height as near to standard as possible.

Also, does their finish appear Scottish winter proof against the high levels of salt we use on our roads?

I've put Eibach Pro springs on my R53 with healthy standard shocks and they're very good. Much comfier and smoother than the JCW set up on my JCW, and with decent tyres more than adequate for some spirited driving up the back roads.


I'm sure when I measured the ride heights to compare, the fronts were the same, but the Eibachs sit 5mm lower at the back, so you loose a little bit of rake, but the car still feels and handles much better.

I picked the springs up for £45 second hand.




There's a set of JCW new rear springs on eBay just now I think.
