Bomber Carnage on the Garage Floor Donating Members 3,994 Member For: 14y 11m 11d Gender: Male Location: Gold Coast Posted 04/10/12 12:32 PM Author Share Posted 04/10/12 12:32 PM (edited) Quite a few of us on here are running them now mate (Bellato & 1NSANE). I'm very happy with them - pretty sure so are the others. They're matched perfectly to the kings. I rate the ride better than stock on choppy stuff. They still have a sporty feel and handle rebound very well. The car feels planted without feeling every pebble in the road.The 3yr 60k warranty closed the deal for me. I seriously can't fault them. Unless you're chasing premium handling I think they're hard to beat.

They weren't due to run off another batch of the rear HPX pads for about a month. But, made me a set today. Now that's customer service. All fitted and bed in now Hi-Torque advised my new braided hoses have shown up this arvo. Still waiting on a price for the rotors.

And more dollars for other chit. Like <br />I had thrown a set of these in my last GTS. It was up to 120k and I was selling it to a friend. Thought Id do him a favour before I gave it to him.. I didnt rate them.They were matched to king springs by the way. But admittedly it was probably a little bit too low Good shocks are so critical.. more than any mod you could do Edited 05/10/12 07:09 AM by jimmixr Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76642-in-the-club/page/29/#findComment-1305280 Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmixr Donating Members 686 Member For: 14y 8m 3d Posted 05/10/12 07:36 AM Share Posted 05/10/12 07:36 AM agreed... They just felt less controlled than the 120k old shocks I was replacing..

Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 6m 3d Posted 05/10/12 08:17 AM Share Posted 05/10/12 08:17 AM Just to hijack I'm running sssl front and ssssl rear with monroe sports on 20's with not a whole lot of tyre and It's the same as it was stock on 19's. The stock suspension is quite stiff, a bit of an improvement performance wise over B series but lost a bit of its ride comfort. Definitely rate the monroe's for a street car. Can't comment on how they are for track though 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76642-in-the-club/page/29/#findComment-1305306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up going the 'povo' option with RDA slotted. Race brakes in Sydney are doing them insanely cheap atm. $250 delivery for all four! I know the DBA T3's are better quality but for my application, it's pretty hard to justify near $500 extra. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/76642-in-the-club/page/29/#findComment-1307035 Share on other sites More sharing options...
