    Suspension refresh

    Yeah I've thought about it too much now. I might stay standard. The press raved about this car at the time, Renaultsport must have done a pretty good job. And at least I know the springs and dampers are all brand new and matched Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Are you in a 197 or a 200? Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Thats good to know mate. I bought the car not realising it was on H&Rs, which are really hard Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Thanks mate. There's plenty of experience with them across the forums, saying the spring rate is progressive so improves the ride over cup springs. And they're better quality. I know it won't be perfect but I'm hoping it's the best comprise for the budget I've got. Sent from my SM-G973F...

    Big thanks for all the input [emoji1360][emoji1360][emoji1360] With coilovers out of budget, I've gone for Eibachs and cup dampers as this setup seems to get loads of good reports. Looking forward to driving it! [emoji3] Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Thanks mate I bet they are amazing but any decent coilovers are out of my budget :-( Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Suspension refresh

    Thanks again for all the input. Getting work done next week, thinking Cup shocks and Eibach springs as this seems to be the best balance, as coilovers are out of budget. Good news is that it turns out mine is actually fitted with H&Rs which seems to be get slated for crashiness, and my top...

    I think 200 Cup springs were 15 stiffer than 197 Cup so would make sense that Bilstiens fall somewhere in between. I realise it's subjective anyway, but seems that Eibach springs are the most compliant none standard option as they have a progressive spring rate Thanks for all the advice...

    Thanks mate, handling definitely more important than comfort. I think this is just telling me I need to refresh the suspension and enjoy the car! Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    From magazine reviews I read I think the 200 Cup spring rates are much stiffer that 197 but good to know you noticed difference after replacing dampers [emoji1360] Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Suspension refresh

    I know it'll always be a firm riding car and am happy with that, mine is just a bit crashy so I'm hoping that's just because everything is worn. I wondered if anyone's recently renewed springs and dampers and noticed an improvement Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk

    Suspension refresh

    Got an RS200 with cup pack which needs full suspension refresh. I use the car as a (low mileage) daily, do most hard driving on bumpy B roads and will do a couple of track days a year max. Find the current set up a bit too harsh at times (though might be because everything's worn and I know yr...
