Hi Uwe,

Good site.
I had a look a few weeks ago and it had an option for 'English'

Can't find that on the one you posted in this thread.

Great site and great to see your car. Looks great!

Cheers, Tom

Hi Uwe. I know the story of how you got this Torana via help through this forum years ago.

 

But......... what was it that drew you to our humble Torana half way across the globe?

I love the new photos on the website, Uwe. Can we see any of them in a larger resolution?

How many racing events have you done so far?

Hi Mick,

 

This KW Coilovers are custom made for me to fit on the Torana LH.

 

A engineer fro KW came to the workshop to do the measurements.

 

After a few laps on the Nürburgring we did some light changes at the spring bell.

 

Also i have made a stronger lower bracket for the shocks to make the surface at the lower control arm stronger.

 

I thing now a set of rear and front would be 2500 €  with one set of springs plus shipping.

 

But you have to think about the rear shoch space to the wheels. There some additional cm of the spring when you look from the original shocks.So perhaps you might change the wheel or using plates to change the offset.

 

Uwe

Thanks for that Uwe, that's about $4000 AUD plus shipping. sounds like a lot but if you compare it to $500 per shock for off the shelf Bilsteins its not that bad for a custom KW spring shock combo.

I'm still a loooong way away from decision time on what I use.
