    Hi Guys,

    I'm thinking of purchasing the novitec suspension for my 06 F430. Does anyone here have any experience with it?

    Thanks

    Firstly, I have a bunch of Novitec stuff - high quality & great service.

    I have the spring replacement kit but not the complete kit with the dampers.

    The springs are 20-30mm shorter than stock - which allows you to lower the car without loosing as much damper travel.

    The springs are a little stiffer than stock - but could really be a lot stiffer as the F430 springs are relatively soft. It is a personal preference I guess.

    Was that you in the all black car at Eastern Creek yesterday? LOVELY! (if it was you)

    err... spring length and rate makes no effect on damper available travel... all it does is effect the position of the platform... What you need to look out for is that if your springs are TOO short, they could flop out their perches on full droop.. as the damper travel will remain the same as stock!!

    Have anyone out there tried adjusting their stock suspension to a diff height from stock?

    Any opinion on the optimum height for mostly road use and abt 3 times a year track day?
