Are these worth having or are they just bling?

[techieboy]

Just bling, as far as I'm concerned. But others do seem to love a bit of bling.

Calling from afar; can anyobne tell me if the gear change cables are NA or Turbo or indeed if it doesn't make any difference?

 

Thanks in advance.

It does make a difference. No sure what they are selling. But I have some low mileage good Na ones if you want

These are the ones. I was thinking at that price, it'd be worth buying a new set for the shelf.

[The Batman]

Bargain!! Worth calling t make sure they are NA or tubby

[myles]

My location makes that a bit tricky. I might ping them an email and watch the stock list go down to zero while I wait for a reply. Or just sod it and buy them.

[myles]

Oh well, purchased. The wife will be so happy!

Bugger hope there are not turbo ones.

They're still just bling

It is what it is I suppose; if they are, I'll move mine along on here at some point. If not, then it's a bargain!

Buy the rest, stick them in the loft for a year, then double your money on the bay

Bugger....hope they are not NA ones.

Hmmmm.  There's a lot of thinking going on here.  What I'm after is a definitive answer as to the difference between NA and turbo shocks/spring ratings, as I'm in the market for new suspension all round.  Couldn't find that definitive answer using search unfortunately.

To the best if my knowledge shocks are the same on both front springs are the same rears are stronger on a turbo  

  I'm hearing you Chris.  But as the dampers on this site don't have springs on them for the turbo version, I'd like to know what springs I need to factor in.  Specifically, what were the spring ratings on the original turbo setup, as this is my preferred setup.

Horace, you're not that far from Larkspeed in Leeds. You could have a run up there & natter with them for your spring rates for VXt, still making a killing?

Pretty much guaranteed they wont unfortunately. I spoke to the guy organising and asked this already

It's all mainly the stuff Lotus would have got big discounts for in high volume.

They're having to order between 3 different departments of Lotus at the moment, so anything people order from Lotus Racing you'll probably be waiting a week or two while the stuff from the factory will be overnight.

In fact I paid yesterday at 10am and arrived this morning, lovely

[Bargi]

Right, Gear Cables

These are the numbers on the GM sticker but I can't seem to find anything matching them in Google that points to NA or Turdo

Someone want to try their Google Foo and see what they come up with?

Poop, Turbo. What's the difference for fitting?
