  • General Question - best fast road suspension setup

    As title, whats the best fast road setup, I already have Koni`s and ahmed springs, but for the best road setup, how far should I go?, (I dont want coil overs), adjustable tca, 6 degree rear beam maybe?, is this over kill for the road?.

    any advise would be welcome.

              agree 6deg beam just makes it handle better

                It is a mildly tuned ST, and I just want to improve the handling a bit more and have a little extra cash burning in my pocket..

                    Why don't you want coilovers.

                      I was told that the ride was harsh, and that they weren`t suitable for road use.

                        Hi Mark, and I hope your having a good day! I`m surprised your on-line instead of being out on the piss.

                        By the way I was thinking of changing me ST management using your upgrade! but thought I`d sort the handling first, but I am not sure which way to go about it.

                          Hello Bob being 47 and not been drunk since I was 22 means I am stone cold sober,
                          The last set of coil overs I had from BAD they resprung and revalved for me and the ride and handling was awesome when using a good rear beam run it slightly higher and use the suspension travel you will be shocked how good a Escort can be.

                              Driver training is the best mod for handling
