How easy is it to change settings before or after a track day so that you get a reasonable drive on the road and a track setup otherwise?

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I was at Castle Combe on Saturday, during which I had some of the best tuition i've ever had from a guy called Irling Jensen. I'd recommend him any day of the week. Anyway, it became apparent that my tweaked Turbo S has more power than the suspension can really handle at the limit and Irling suggested that Manthey provide some of the best suspension setups that he has come across. I've checked out their website and they offer a fully adjustable suspension system which comes in at around £4,500 fully fitted. Then there is a uniball strut system. Firstly, is the uniball something you add on as well as the new suspension or is it something you would add instead of the other suspension system? The uniball strut thing is also around £4,500 from memory so both together are getting on for £10k. Secondly, I understand the theory about the adjustable suspension but has anybody lived with it? How easy is it to change settings before or after a track day so that you get a reasonable drive on the road and a track setup otherwise? Is this something I could adjust easily in my garage or would I have to use a full ramp? Any other advice/thoughts would be much appreciated.

POST 2Original post

Manthey use moddified KW variant 3 suspension. Do a search on here for the KWs amd you'll find loads of info and useful contact links... :thumb:

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's great. I'll get searching immediately!

POST 4Original post

I had a PSS9 Bilstein set up on my turbo, excellent on road so much better than the std suspension i every way including ride quality. not tracked tho' I can't imagine it wouldn't have been very good there too.

POST 5Original post

We sell quite an even split of the KW V3's and the Bilstein PSS10's for the 996TT, theres also the HLS (Hydraulic lift system) for the KW's that lets you drop & raise at the flick of a switch. Just give me a shout if you needed any more info. :thumb:
