Hi

Does anyone have any experience of Spax RSX coilovers on an E30 on the track or road? and if so what are the opinions.

Thanks

I'm using spax shocks on my IS and no complaints so far, I was going to get some for my touring aswell.

2007 PBMW championship was won on Spax psx shocks, I think Liams car was the test bed for the prototype coilovers, if you u2u him on Seloc he'll give you the lowdown.

ive ran spax in 2008 pbmw and was consistanley in the top 10 in a low budget car with a handful of podium finishes.ive now converted them 2 coilovers diy stylee.but the rsx kit looks good for the money!!

i use spax dampers and i think they are really good.I've done a track day on them also.

thumbs up from me

thanks for the replies will u2 liam re his shocks, thanks brian.

i used the spax adjustable kit on my touring and went through 3 pairs of rear top mounts in under a year. even the softest setting was to harsh for road use imo.the springs are fine when used with bilsteins.

thats strange.I did change the springs also for h+r ones on mine but found the damping good.I have mine set fairly soft,i also fitted a pair of m3 cab top bushes at the same time so had no problems with the strut tops.When they are set stiff they really are too much but on a lower setting like 4-6 clicks i find them great.
Maybe they are specced stronger damping for the touring ?

are they coilover on the rear or damper and spring?
