@Kapil-Patel Thank you as always for watching 👀. I am glad you enjoyed it, yeah the subscribers are creeping up quickly now 😀. Look out for the video next week. Thank you
Hi Andy, what weight springs (kg/mm) are you using front and rear? Thanks! I'm considering BC Racing DS Series but their lightest springs are 3.5kg front and 5kg rear which is a lot stiffer than standard. I'd rather use adjustable damping and stiffer roll bars to control body movement and keep the springs lighter for a more compliant ride. What are your thoughts? Regards Giles
@imakestuffhere Hi, I believe the FlexZ are 3kg front and 5kg rears. Are you looking to track the car? The DS are a digressive damping style if its a road car the BC BR might be a better choice. I can do a deal on them if you are interested?
@@thetallguyandy hey, thanks for replying. 2 questions in response. How do you find those springs rates on the road? And my reasoning for the DS series was that it's my understanding that the DS also offer similar levels of bump damping, so if you're 20 clicks out on the shock on both BR and DS shocks they offer the same bump damping but the DS provides relatively more low speed damping to control body roll. Have I understood that correctly?
@imakestuffhere so digressive (ds) shocks are good at dealing with big changes in damping. So if you were on track they are great for hitting curbs and absorbing it but not as good as dealing with small changes on the road. Some manufacturers like MeisterR have developed valving the deal with this so you can drive them on road without being harsh. The BR are linear damping which means they are a good all round coilover, I run these on the Celica and really rate them, it means I can go from road to the track on the same setup and they deal with it really well. The Tein Flexz on the MR2 are really comfortable on the road they feel like you are driving on stock shocks. They are a twin tube oem style damper though so might not hold up so well on track as they tend to aerate, but we will find out next year.
@@imakestuffhere they are great, they are soft enough that the car does not smash around and they are stiff enough to not make it feel like a rolly polly. If you want some more info or want a price for any coilovers pop me an email
Congrats on passing 2K subs !! another great video 👍🏽 looking forward to the upcoming tech talk video. Thanks as always for sharing Andy 👍🏽

Safety first andy
Stupid safety
Everyone wants to see it get a 2zz.
I think you should "donate" yours LOL
No we don't.
