Are you all running the Raceland jobbies from hottuning?

My ones are made by TA technix, think they're over a year old now and they're still like new!! I can freely adjust them without slapping on half a can of WD40 first aswell lol

Well that is 8mths, they seem to last a max of a year plus they also seem to be damaging other parts being as firm as they are.

I'll report back at 12 months then, but I from a personal perspective I haven't noticed a change in ride since the day I put them on, what other things get damaged?

Nail on the head, or so i have been led to believe elsewhere   :smug:

old style raceland - not so good, and no warranty.

TA Technix - Better and warranted

but at the end of the day, a bare spring is 20 quid. so that leave 25 a corner to make the rest.

Pay cheap, pay twice. Weitecs FTW  :grin:

They seem to knock out susp. bushes plus they cannot do a car being as hard as they are.
