dont recall anyone using them on here.
though rally cinq has coilovers and nitrane uses AVO but both are set up for competition.
plus in the normal kit its only the fronts that are adjustable coilovers.
what size wheels are you running to loer 75mm+?

Re: Anybody runing on AVO coilover suspension?

unfortunatly rallycinq has custom mounts to the rear to allow the fitment of coilovers.
depends how much you want to spend.
leda would be a bespoke order as well i think
probs www.leda.com

I'm only looking for coilover to the front, if i change to anything around the mounts in the back, then will the danish bilsyn (MOT) drag me behind the building and shoot my

I have any idea how much the rebound is on the spax shock ?

Re: Anybody runing on AVO coilover suspension?

I've got the AVO GTZ kit, although i've junked the springs as they're not stiff enough for competition (although probably fine for road use).

You 'could' wind the fronts down if you like, but you then couldn't drive it. Unlike rallycinq i've still got the standard set-up on the back, and have changed the springs to adjust ride height.

Re: Anybody runing on AVO coilover suspension?

think the spax set up with 60mm drop shox would suit oyu.
reports suggest they drop more anyway

Re: Anybody runing on AVO coilover suspension?

Rallycinq, you got any pictures of how you converted the rears? how do they fit to the original arms and what ones are you running in the rear (are they custom made coilovers or off another car?)
