Wow, its been 6 months since I've been on the 964 section. Hope everyone is well & I can see the London 964 crew have been busy Its been a mad summer 2014!!!! a lot has happened.

To answer Blockhed, no not yet.

Anyway, the car is on the road for the last 5 months, enjoying most of the UK summer. Will fill you in on the progress and how Amazon is performing so far.

By my calculations that makes it just under 4 years in the making...well done for finally getting her on the road.

Welcome back Norm!! Long time no see. When will we see Amazon in the flesh so to speak? I'm sure there's a lot of information on it's way to us? Brian.

So Norm, what's the verdict. How do the silvers compare to the KW's you've used on other 964's??

ill answer this one, mines going really well. the car has settled out the car is driving really flat, I upgraded the sway bars at the same time.

the car drives nice and soft if I want it too and also rock hard if I need it to be. I set it up on the middle setting. drives really good.

gives my M3 a run for its money.

Some info on Norm's company homepage - says to contact them to request more info.

In short, they are coilovers with optional topmounts, produced in Asia and at an affordable price. I know a number of happy customers.
