Gt4 - With the "works"	Tue, 23 September 2003 09:31

Well - i have the " works " kit installed now - and already ive notiiced the Gt4 handling 100% better than the stock stuff that was in it ( obviously ) The Konis make the ride firm - but smooth - on country roads - around town it sits flat - and steady - not much roll around corners at all ( havent adjusted the koni's to my liking yet ) Appearance wise its sitting only about an inch ot an inch and a half lower - so it still looks relatively Stock - but the springs are obviously right up there - very nice to corner now The rears lost all its wandering thanks to the new swaybars and training arm mounts - you can read it and predict how the bum of the car will react alot easier now - which is something i Loathed with the Gt4 previous to today All in all - even though it cost me a small packet - the kit has been worth the money ! Now i just cant wait to get the new tyres on to FULLY feel the benifits !

it was the full kit - koni's lowered springs , camber pins , bushes , rear swaybar and mounts .. I got the konis on good advice re their lifespan and the fact that they are adjustable - the KYB's that were the alternative were a set gas setup - the koni's are oil dampened .. it cost me about 450-500 difference but going from good gas ones to Oils - i can really tell the difference in the smoothness over the rough stuff - they jar alot less ( at the moment seeing i havent wound them up ) then any sports gas setup ive ridden in Plus it came with a cool badge and stickers * laughs * [Report message to a moderator]
