    Thanks for the detailed info, worx.

    KW's were the suspension i was looking at.. Factory VW uses them so i figured they had to be good.

    Where did you buy them? Are they available in aus or did you have to import them from europe?

    Any other info you could give me would be much appreciated.

    Re GAZ Suspension

    Sorry, Just got around to reply,my car has been built for Tarmac Rallying also but with the view of doing also hillclimbs and supersprints etc.
    Suspension is availabe from Vic and Andrew Spiteri in Blackburn melbourne,but can probably tell you if there is an agent closer to you.
    They build and race Jaguars for Targa's etc
    I found them very helpful.

    Thumbs up

    These guys do some great suspension for race cars and they race themselves and have developed it all in house. They will ship to oz and their pricing is really sharp. MMI gave them two thumbs up when he fitted some of their gear to his tarmac car.

    I have a buddy who runs a shine racing service suspension. It is no joke. The will not let you order without talking to them first, they want everything to be correct for your car and use. They are serious.

    When its time for me to buy its between them and the KW suspension.

    A great budget setup is Koni Yellows and ground controls.

    Tell your buddy to hook me up with a good price then.

    Just checked out their website, they look like they know their stuff.

    I got quoted 2800 for the KW V3's, and that's in Australia. The Shine racing website is currently under construction, so i couldn't see what they had, but i will check them out after christmas.

    I've heard great things about KW but not much about these other guys, so i will have to talk to both parties and see.
