I recently bought a '02 1.6 focus, I intend to have it as a go-kart. I know the 1.6 isn't the fastest (by along way!) but I wanted just have a few mods...
I'm looking at 16s and coilovers, sitting it nice an low.
Is it worth spending about £600 on spax or gaz?
Or for what I'd use it for do I get JOM, raceland, FKs for a £200 of eBay?

 

FK's for £200, they are cheap rip offs, avoid at all cost along with AK's get genuine FK highsports

 

If you want to improve handling then avoid the cheap stuff. I've got Eibachs which are brilliant but expensive - AP's seem to have a reasonable reputation and aren't too pricey.

 

I have Jom coilovers and they are brilliant

 

I've read a LOT of good about JOM coilovers, what are they like on the road for handling an comfort?

 

Handling is good Feels like a go kart !! It's only a little bumpy through crap roads when their all over the place shit roads in London

And I've got them on lowest setting car feels planted on the motorway too it's my everyday car and I've had them on for 4 months.

 

Ive got Racelands on mine very good quality for how cheap they are handlings spot on and so is the ride there on there lowest settings and im running 19inch wheels its a daily too

 

Just a quick update- got the jom coilovers and I'm really impressed! Got them all the way down, and still not a bad ride.
Now Im so low, the camber ic obviously out... If I got the pumaspeed camber caster adjusters for the front and it set up would this resolve my rapid tyre wear?
Thanks
