ive been told that the rear bump stops are a better option, they are also cheaper so probably best to try first and if u need a little more to try the shockers. im looking at comp bump stops all around and lowering my hydro pressure

I would like to do both but I think the guy doing all the work would like to see the end of the project. I keep adding to the wishlist and I was just hoping to not ask for tooo much.

Love the shocks, love the bumpstops too....rear bumpstops are very fast to fit however, and cheap.

No matter how much you play with suspension on a mini, if you go into a corner too hard it will still do this........

I was not thinking of cornering, just want to reduce bonnet lift on take off.

Fit an 850. :mrgreen:

Just the rear bump stops will do for starters.

Having just changed from 998 to 1310, to ask for an 850 may not go down too well.
I think I will request the bump stops and perhaps he will do both.

fit both mate,

comp stops in the back will be great for torque transfer and keep the arse 'up' as for the shocks up front, anything will do, a pair of cheap oil-filled ones will do the trick, no point spending hundreds of bucks on adjustable things if the car is Hydro...

Comp rear bumpstops also help turn-in, they reduce understeer- similar to what a rear sway bar does.
They also let ya carry fat chicks in the back... :lol:

With the front shocks, do you need a kit or any mods or cna you just purchase the shocks from any reputable Mini spares place?
