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........ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Wet ![]() Dry |

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

Fit an 850. ![]() 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... ![]() |
