35mm Faulkner Springs on Apex Dampers?

[Raz]

Will the above spring available from Kam Racing be too hard for Apex Dampers? Reason I ask is that I am looking for some 35mm springs as the springs that came with the kit came with 25mm ones.

Any help is great :y:

[Steve]

which springs the 155lb?

Any 35mm spring steve...but Faulkner seems to be what people choose most....

[Sparco_Tom]

faulkners are a good choice

[Steve]

yeah but it depends on what lb you get, you can get 200lb springs which are faulkner and 35mm but they would ruin apex dampers imo.

[vtr_chris90]

i dont think faulkner springs will fit the apex dampers, well the ones kamracing sell

willsy tried fitting the 155lb faulkners from kam to his koni kit and the springs were waaaaay too short for the damper if i remember rightly, so he sold them to rushy cause he has b8's

[Aron]

mate allot of people dont know why faulkners are good, they just see the name allot and thing its the best thing ever.

if you get the right length spring and weight for the damper it will work perfectly fine.

this. yu need t0 match them up

y0ud pr0b be best getting the apex springs

[DanT]

if the apex springs are designed to run with the apex dampers, would be silly to choose anything else for entry level spec suspension?

[Raz]

Apex dont do a 35mm spring for the VT models...

[SteveWC]

apex sell 35mm springs. theyre on the kam website you can buy them there.

other places sell them to, theyre on ebay and a couple of tuning websites.

so ebay, google search or kam racing :y:

the apex springs are also rated really good quality for entry level suspension kit setups

Cheers for the suggestion dude, but one thing...although on the Kam Racing Website they have 25, 35 and 50mm springs, the 35mm springs have the same product code as the 25mm. After I fitted the kit myself, I got Manic Motors to drop the torsion bar 35mm (as I thought the springs were this), and the rear is lower than the front.

I've scrapped the idea now anyway of Faulkners on Apex...going to get Faulkners on Billies ;)

[Steve]

am selling my billies soon ;)

[KamRacing]

the apex are a mid range damper and personally I'd pair the faulkner springs with a better performing damper

[adamsax]

So can you use the Apex 50mm Dampers on -50mm Eibach springs?

Is it fine just as long as the dampers you buy are suited to the drop provided by the springs?

[gjs]

The apex springs sit differently on the various models.so a 35mm will drop some cars 35mm and others only 25mm,engine weight etc!

Yes, very true...but explain how a 1.1 engine is heavier than a VTR/VTS engine? The kit lowers the 1.1's 35mm, but the VT's 25mm
