From what I've read they are supposed to be better for track duties which is sort of what im going for with this thing. Do you recon itd be quite a noticeable improvement or should I just save up and get some teins or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ba/f1 spings are not suitable for bf2 strut assy's and vice versa for bf2 to ba/f1. As complete assemblies they are interchangeable. Either way unless the r-spec suspension was very very low km and on the near side to free...not much point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspension doesn't last forever. You might buy something that is worse than what you currently have if you go second hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 23/01/17 01:29 PM Share Posted 23/01/17 01:29 PM (edited) I've got an Rspec Typhoon and I do track days........one of the best mods I've ever done was to fit a set of adjustable coilovers to it..... Turned an already good car into a great car......;) And don't think you need top shelf ones either.......the ozrace setup I've got on mine does the job just fine.....and the front and rear owes me less than 1500 bucks.
