I am running the swifts with Koni Yellows on the R56, full soft on the Koni's. My 19 is set full soft, too.

It is very, very nice on the highway and trips up into the Mountains. Was excellent on my recent trip down to Texas, then AK (MITO) then back home to Colorado.

Very predictable on those occasional track lapping days.

I am not running front chamber plates, but I do have H-Sport rear adjustable for alignment, MINI is set for an agressive JCW alignment by the Schomp MINI senior techs.

Nick lowering your MINI will require a set of adjustable rear arms to get the added caber back in check. I'm using H-Sport recommend them. Add the cost of another alignment too.

 

Stiffer sway bars will remove some roll without going lower if that is a concern. I know it helped reduce outside tire wear on my car in a dramatic manner. Just another thing to consider.

 

Nick,
Professor is selling these. http://www.motoringalliance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20157

 

Those are just the springs & not the coilovers Jeff. They won't fit what he has.

 

Haha. Oooops. Didn't catch that.

 

Sure. We can do that.

 

It's a real shame our friend Jason traded his MINI in with a brand spanking new JCW suspension kit under it. Had we know he could have sold it & made some money.

 

Do you have a larger rear swaybar on Walter yet?

 

If you want adjustable arms. Like I told you before... You can take my uppers for a good price if you take them off and put my OEM back on. Uppers are the same as lower. They are Tarett engineering and red to match your accents.
I say good price... These are $300 new for two. Hey that rhymed! We can work something out if you want them.

 

H-Sports are Blu & we both know Blu is faster.....

 

Alrighty. Sounds good! I also need to get your polisher back to you.
