I'm betting were not far off track with something like this .. we could machine the inner hole out to 25mm if needs be , these are sachs parts..

I have to admit i was looking for something that at least looked similar to start off with but I could be persuaded. You probably know better than me but what effect, if any, do different bump stops have on the performance of something like the OE Sachs?
As long as you stick to the std length and OD it should have a pretty minimal effect .. on our set up it is more for bottoming safety rather than a more modern longer bump stop that is designed to be a method of rising rate springing as the car rolls ,, you could if you were thinking of a track set up explore longer stops for this ..
These look pretty close to the gaiter http://www.spring-loaded.co.uk/prod...ion~Kits~-~Bump~Stops-Dust-Covers~-~AK-735023

I think best plan is to give them a call and explain the situation and give measurements and see what they have that's close.. If it's just opening up the ID on the bump rubber that's easy..
Is that the BG double seal end cap Nathan ??
Yes the red one is the standard Sachs part.. But i think that one might be the BG upgrade ?? Anyone else have that option might be able to confirm ??
Yes i think Nathan has swapped the flush ( Needle ) valve for a Std valve on the double seal cap..
Would be great if there were other options out there apart from BG, i.e. someone a bit cheaper lol
Lovely bit of work Nathan... Are you going to get the same place to dyno them ?
Nice work, look great.
