the susspension on my MR2 is rock solid and it starting to piss me off. its got adjustable dampers so i think this weekend i will turn it towards 'soft'

I cant go down a road with out it bouncing off every stone on the road! fucking annoying!

nah i used to prefer it to the jelly-ride it used to be.

i prefer to feel every stone & condition of the road instead of have it all get lost in the suspension...

Got cheapy cheap bilstein kit.

Bunch of arse

Crashy and bouncy, not good when we all dont drive on a flat bumpless race track everyday.

I want the suspension like in bmws. Its hard, yet supple over bumps

my old 106 had a 500 quid bilstein setup, It was amazing on the right roads, rock solid... going over rails was a nightmare, but it handled absolutely amazing, better than the 106 I have now... not practical though it literally was solid and driving through town was a joke
