uncupping a cup?

[czechplastik]

Has anyone ever done this?

Pricey? Worthwhile (subjective)?

 

[Foxspeed]

in which way?

why buy something like a cup then try and add to it....just buy a normal one with a cup chassis...best of both then!

Would cost a fortune. Much cheaper to buy a FF with a cup pack.

I thin Khrushchev is asking to buy a cup and then put the sport chassis on?

It would be far easier on a 197 as the 200 also involves steering rack.

could just swap the shocks round if its the smoother ride your after.Not to expensive to do.

I don't think the shocks and springs are to expensive from Renault.

Yeh I have a 200FF with cup. Just wonder how easy/cheap it is to fit the standard suspension set up onto it.

Or if the ride is even appreciably better. The cup is hard, well damped not harsh but I recall my FF 197 flowing through corners, the cup suspension doesn't seem to give the same sensation. It stays flat and grippy (less fun on the roads?).

Has anyone done this or can anyone who has spent a significant time in both specs give me some reviews or feedback.

I am not unhappy with the ride or whatever. Just open to other options.

Thoughts appreciated.

200 standard suspension is softer than a 197 standard suspension.

Yup. Just seeking feedback from someone that has driven both 200 set-ups.

Maybe try and organise a test drive at a Dealership? Might help you a bit being able to drive it yourself.
