Seeing as 3S are my excellent, local MR2 chaps, I decided to take up their great offer on the BR series, and I'm certainly glad I did

I fitted them myself at 3S, and they gave me a hand when I needed it, which due to a few things not being put on correctly I was glad for their assistance.

So initially I checked that the suspension was at least the same heigh per axle, and it comes well set up out of the box, also included some rear drop links which were unexpected and

I also double checked that the stiffness was set the same on all of them

So all fitted, no issues at all.

It's currently set halfway at 15 clicks

The next day I just lowered the car down a bit more, so at the front there are 3 threads between the lower locking collar and the first of the upper collar, about 5-8mm at a guess.

The rear I just guessed and dropped down with a gap of 55mm between the collars.

I've also had a 4 wheel alignment done, as this is essential due to it being completely different with new shocks on, if you don't do this.

The car has been completely transformed.

Next up is the whiteline ARB's, I'll be putting the front one on today but the rear I'll need a bit of help with

Overall, I cannot fault these coilovers for a compromise between road and track use.

I won't be on track for a couple of months as I want to carry on getting the chassis sorted, then a full geo at WIM but I'll report back once I have.

Hopefully this will help anyone who isn't sure whether to take the plunge or not.
