Guest Terry S Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 Don't ask me why but a friend wants a set of rear UK shocks & springs. He has sourced a front set but needs the rears. He doesn't like the harsh ride of the JDM. Should have bought a Jag if you ask me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorin Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 I don't think the JDM is too harsh, in fact I think it's just right. Could do with not diving as much under heavy braking etc. though imo. Might I suggest your friend buys a soarer? Did you know they're the only sports car good enou.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Cargill Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 Terry, have a word with Leon, when he put my new rear shocks on he kept hold of the ones that were on the car. They were pretty good condition UK ones. Can't help with the springs though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 11, 2003 Share Posted June 11, 2003 Thanks Steve. I spoke to him today ( not about the shocks) said he was having a mare with your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did better than me then, I called 3 times and he wasn't in each time!! It seems to be one thing after another, I spoke to him Friday and he'd got it running, but was misfiring at tickover. Getting V pissed off after nearly 3 months off the road again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith C Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 Originally posted by Terry S Great, cheers Doughie If he doesn't, I *do* have a full set of stock UK shocks off my 1st MKIV. They've sat in my garage for the last 18 months though - would they still be alright? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 Ah Keith you da man. Should be fine. PM me so we can talk £ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith C Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 Erm, no £ needed really, I'd be happy to get rid of them. If you can find me a decent nick stock IC though... Whereabouts are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted June 13, 2003 Share Posted June 13, 2003 Cheers Mate. I am in Watford but off to see Matt H soon. I will see if I can help with the stock IC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith C Posted June 16, 2003 Share Posted June 16, 2003 Well, let me know when you're heading down to see Matt and we can arrange meeting up. I live within a couple of miles of the M20/M25 junction, so you've got to go within spitting distance of my house anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
