Hi Gang..
I am humbled by the kind feedback from you all that have had work done and plan to have work done by me in the future..
The only point I would like to add is that this isn't my full time work and I have been quite overwhelmed by the amount of work that has landed in my workshop.. I do...
On the std trophy Spring the difference is noticeable but subtle... Once up to speed the Sachs come into their own..
The difference is much more pronounced when you are on a firmer Spring like the Cooksport or Mark Fish as the Damper is not overcome by the spring rate like a std cup unit is..
If they are not leaking that's a good start.. But the problem with these units is de gassing and being driven de gassed as it speeds up the wear rate... A push down on the front corners should be very firm.. If not it's a good chance they need looking at..
No not done them yet.. But in a nutshell I did new cup vs new trophy rear... Next to nothing in it..
I'd be up for doing a koni if anyone can spare one ....
Yes they are .. This thread was started way before the picture with the red springs tho.. It's more about the OEM tubing used to prevent coil binding ( Knocking )
Dont sell if now mate .. you've done the hard work .. In all honesty once they are running well they are good .. mine is no worse than any normal car in terms of expense ..
That's good info Phil.. The more choice owner have the better...
I like the power flex one as it creates a much better seal than the std Sachs items.. But it's up to the customers
Nitrogen is clearly optimum but my point is that it's better to top up a little if they are very low than run de gassed..
The damper works well between 65-85 psi unloaded... So wheel off the ground.. What you do with that information is up to each owners choice..
