Conkers is an unknown quantity at this point

We have cut a couple of turns out fo the standard springs, fitted bilstien dampers from an M3 that were knocking around and run about 4" of bump stops on the dampers. She actually feels nice to drive... but we will probably go harder for drifting....
Remember that when you cut a spring the rate increases...

It's cheaper than buying new springs... and as a rule of thumb removing a coil lowers the car and stiffens it just about right for road use...

Conkers.

ps.. that said, I think we will be buying adjustable coil-overs for the rear to allow us to change the set-up for track use and drifting..
