hoff Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Hi. I'm currently running TT shocks on my NA. The ride is a little stiff as a result. Does anyone have a set of NA shocks in pretty good condition they want to sell? Posted via Mobile Device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Thanks for that but my lack of searching has been shown up. On a mobile is my excuse. Turns out im fine with the ones I have. Thanks though. Posted via Mobile Device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 The TT dampers on an N/A car will make the ride stiffer as they are valved for the stiffer TT springs. What WON'T change by just using TT dampers on an N/A is the ride height, assuming you still run the N/A springs, or whatever springs were on the origianl N/A dampers. HTH.

hoff Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 I'm with you Chris. So ideally then, yes I should be looking for a set of NA specific shocks. How much would you charge to refurbish those offered above? Thanks Chris. Posted via Mobile Device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Unless the dampers are an expensive, high quality known make, refurbing them is a waste of money. I can supply brand new German made Bilsteins for under 100 quid each, plus postage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 This is what I suspected. Having lost my job before xmas though I can't afford a new set unfortunately. If something turns up though Chris I'll give you a call regarding them. Posted via Mobile Device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
