Apexi N1 Type V Coilovers

[shotwood]

I've ditched my GAB coilovers and fitted the Apexi ones. What a revelation. I think the GAB's were desgined for tracks/very smooth roads. No good for this country then...

I wasn't aware of the aftermarket suspension until I picked the vehicle up. Wouldn't have stopped me buying it, just wouldn't have paid any extra for it. ;)

Are they worth it?

A definite resounding yes! B)

Ok, the turn-in isn't quite as razor sharp, but mid-corner bumps no longer affect the line. The ride is well controlled and really smooth now.

I was surprised by how adjustable they are. A few clicks on the top knobs makes a considerable difference. Had a play this weekend and got the ride set up to my complete satisfaction.

A very worthwhile mod. B)

BTW, I could claim to be a mechanical genius and rabbit on about how easy they were to fit, but my mate has his own commercial garage and he fitted them for me in about 3 hours. He reckons they were easy though. :D

sounds sweet......if I EVER get my Tezza would you be inclined to part with your GAB's? I haven't heard of them, but if my next car has std coilovers then that would be a possiblilty!

got any pics??

No problem Oli. They are very firm but if you do go down the 'Tezza route, give us a shout.

I'll try and get some pics this weekend, work permitting.
