i am now the proud owner of a gorgeus escort cossie my search and wiating for 3 months has pulled off as i know have a real minter. it is still sitting on its standard suspension i am going to order a new kit for it but i,m not sure what to get has anyone out there got any ideas?

 

is it a track day car or a nice road car?

 

it,s a nice road car it wont be on the track

 

coilovers!!!

 

i would buy konis, with ahmed springs you wont be disappointed

 

i thought about konis but iv,e been told that the gaz coilovers are really good

 

ive heard they are very tidy for there money aswell!

 

konis and eibach springs

 

I have konis on mine seem fine to me.

 

bilstein

 

Ive got Koni's on the rear and Bilstein coilovers on the front... Mine was setup by previous owner to be a track car and she handles very well

 

fletch when ya taking me out in it

 

ive konis on mine and thay are ok

 

After going in Mike Rainbird's car I would say Koni's are perfectly fine for any road Esocrt Cossie!!!

 

Stay away from AVO coilovers. I have them on my Escort Cossie, and for road use are not very nice. Very noisy. Handles OK, but noisy. And given the state of some of the B roads I drive, are not good at all.

 

I've met with many Koni failures recently so I dunno about them. I have Bilstein B6 and they stand POlish roads which means they are really tough. I am not sure about the spring choice. I have Lesjofors progressive springs but am wondering about going a little bit more suspension travel specially on the rear.
