Trouser > you got an expensive camera there?? Couldn't help but notice that most of the bottom pic is in decent focus despite it being over a relatively vast focal range

Nice, btw

Trouser,

I set the ride height on my AVO's similar to this, but even with firmer than standrad (275/225) springs I found that only having about an inch of suspension wasn't a lot of good on the country lanes. Looks wicked, but very impractical My old Cusco units could be set this low without bottoming out, but then they never moved!

Mook.. just a SONY "point and squirt " cyber shot jobbie!

Stuart.. no bottoming ouy at this setting mate... spent a lot of time matching damper rate to this spring height tho .. The car is pretty light mind... Come and have a go. Even on our local hump back bridge.. which makes the one from your old "Scalextric" set look lightweight, doesn't phase it.. and any one who has driven our test route will know the sweeping right 2 bend and the bottom of a hill which fully compresses anything..(always under 60 mph of course ).. won't touch it either... RAH!!!!

Gordo.. cheers mate... how was the stag weekend?... or can you not remember?

Trouser, when you said you spent a lot of time matching springs rates and damping, what spring weights are you using, and how stiff is the damping set I tried mine at 25 of 30 graduations on the adjusting **** and that didn't stop it. I have now raised the ride height by 25mm and that has cured it!
