Yea, I rang Quantum to ask how much they were and to find out some other details (they can be rebuild as coil overs!), the guy is on holiday at the moment, got to speak to him when he gets back. Was hard finding any reviews/info on them other than from the company though!

[ed4ran]

Whats so good about them? are they CF or something?

Buy the most expensive dampers you can afford without question.

My bro's mini runs some very trick 2 way adjustable Nitron dampers (500quid a corner) and the ride is just unreal, i've never known anything like it.

my new mini soon has a KAD braking bias box (thanksfully already set) iv not actualy driven it yet so im not sure how its going to feel...there better than those twiddly little jobbies you have next to u in the car tho

[ed4ran]

Ive got one of the kad bias setups as well, seems to work, but i could probably do with reducing one if not both cylinders.

im going for a complete internal pedal box on mine, machining a billet set myself hopefully, but i will be running a seperate knob to adjust it. seen them used before without a problem!

i would love a set of mega dampers but they are something i just cant afford, i am going to use the motorsport avo dampers that are in demon tweeks, altough i have just seen the trakspax ones advertised in mini world this month but still £1k is a lot on dampers!

Very Cool Build, just spent time everyday for the last week reading!

Phew, finally got to the end.

Good luck getting it finished!

[andywaller]

cheers glad you spent the time reading it, i like to have a read every so often, it takes a while!



i am over not winning the dash now, because i just found out it wouldnt have fitted with my cage anyway, so just saved myseld a load of money by not winning it.

i havent got an update really, i didnt get my everyda car mot'd as the garage was busy so hopefully i will get taht done tommorrow and i can finally concentrate on my car and bulding the garage!

[mini93]

hmmmm i guess......how longs that going to take? can u get a tent over the shed while u build it so that u can build the tent then get the mini in to build that

oh well done with MOT

[andywaller]
