Anyone that did the group buy [or anyone else] have updated springs for stock dampers that they are parting with? If so, I'm interested in your old springs - maybe 600/800 or thereabouts. My wife vetoed me buying new suspension parts [Motons], but revalving the same dampers isn't really buying anything, right?

I have 2 sets of front springs for them too.. PM if interested.

Mount the rear cans where you can easily adjust them. Mine are a pain to adjust and a pain to check can pressure. On cars with a rollbar I have seen them mounted down low behind the rear seats on the b-pillar down bar. This is great because to adjust you simply open the door and adjust. With them in the rear you have to crawl in the back to get to them. YOu will thank me on a hot day at Road Atlanta for not having to do that.

Very nice! So your car will be ready for Porsche Train/ORP
I can't wait for my set to arrive! Will need advise from you in the future for baseline seting as I will be using 600/800 lbs springs.
Do you know what ride height with the moton set up?
Thx
Michael

I ended up using 685lb for the front. For ride height, it will depend on how you want to use the car and if you want it really low, you need to add more bits to keep the suspension geometry happy.Right now I have the default Moton settings and soft-ish sway bars so I need time to dial the car in. This will happen in the spring when I get my driving coach behind the wheel.
Enjoy!

Yep, doubles. The new Club Sport really seems to be the Motorsport version now. Not sure what the differences are. Motorsport bodies. Doesn't say Club Sport anywhere.
PJ, you won't like them. Cancel your order right away.

We are going on 1 month now since they've taken my money... And I've had nothing but poor communication from the vendor.. With no ship date in sight!!?? Time is money and this is becoming not such a great deal IMO...

If the vendor doesn't respond I would contact Lex at Moton in GA at 770-886-8777. If that doesn't work you can always call the credit card company.

Vendor replied my email same day this Monday and told me
"Still going to be a couple weeks...
They are simply overwhelmed from all the orders. They are not complaining, but they had no idea it would be this big!
"
I found the better way to contact the vendor is by email.
