Hi,

I went out on my first track day last Saturday and it was awesome, but I need to stiffen up the suspension.

What suspension/coilover set up would people recommend? Please bear in mind that this is a dedicated track car so I don't need to worry about how comfortable it may or may not be day to day.

I've read nothing but good things about the Avo GTX Coilovers, dedicated track suspension, not for road use so they claim.

Realistically comes down to your budget for a good setup.

and it's vital that you uprate the rear torsion bars too. Otherwise you'll just have a car that ploughs straight on in corners.
