Nice!

Well this will fuel F T.com's hatred for gmax I bet :lol:


Although that is a sh*t :( I've had 3 sets and I've still never had problems. (I would never buy a set new tho)

i could get any shocks to be dead by 20k if I drove like a wanker or just didn't realise speed bumps existed. I don't get this thread... :hsugh:

Well just for you then Ry, I don't drive like a tugger and because of my splitter I slow right down for speed bumps.

Having heard many stories of Gmax failures I happened to experience one for myself too, not on one but 2 shocks which kinda helps towards backing up these stories.

Also, above, trissy managed to kill a set just by using them a couple of times on track. Is that "driving like a tugger?"

standard shocks won't even fit my car now, due to the area six wishbones being set up its impossible to fit a standard shock as me and jam found out a year ago, so when my gmax kit dies, aftermarket suspension is all that will fit my car
