Getting my hands dirty
Posted on March 31, 2012 at 10:00pm 2 Comments 2 Likes
Now i've been into cars since i was knee high to a grasshopper, and regulary got my hands dirty doing my own work etc, but slowly got a sidetracked away from it all and got other people to do it for me etc -until today...
See my sisters boyfriend has had a few problems with his alarm on his MK4 astra, and with a little digging we found out it was a common problem with the powersounder batteries failing.…

2012 refresh!

So with the rollercoaster coaster that is 2012 off for a interesting start for me already i thought it was time for the Astra to recieve a slight facelift.
It used to wear irmscher side strips as well as the bright pink Fuetopia stickers and my FBS numbers. I decided it was time for a change as the FT logos were too small for my liking and also my time at Irmscher is coming to a end (my choice). Now me and the rest of …

SPAX Performance said… - Hi Karl,
Good to hear from you again.
If you are looking for the 'creme de la creme' then our coilovers will be the best option. we call them RSX. I have had a look through your blog and can not see the car spec anywhere to check the exact part number you would need, but the price will be somewhere around the £625-£650 + postage with the current £100 off special offer.
To get the exact details and price on a kit for your car it is probably worth calling our office, on 01869 244 771, where someone will be able to look it up for you, alternatively they should be listed on www.SPAXdirect.com
On most Astra kits there are 2 versions, one with rear height adjustment, and one fixed rear height. For the FBS series I would recomend going for the fully adjustable kit as it will allow you to set the corner weights accurately for optimum grip!
I spotted in your blog that you work for Irmscher, don't suppose who I would need to speak to about adding our kits to their lineup?
Look forward to speaking to you again and if you have any questions, please fire away!

- hi Karl,
thanks for the message.
Its pretty hard to say for certain what the best settings will be as many factors can affect it.
Your best bet will be to set the dampers up to your preference and based on your actual car.
There are instructions supplied with all our kits, however if you have misplaced these then they are available on this page: http://www.spaxperformance.com/info.php?type=modern&lang=en
Unfortunately you did nto mention which of our kits you have, the PSX instructions contain a lot of useful info that applies to all our adjustable dampers.
If you want any stickers for the events then let me know as I cant wait to see how you place.
