    Clubsport shock absorbers

    Hi guys I own a 2008 R8 clubsport Tourer and I'm looking for options/opinions on getting new shock absorbers. I don't want coilovers or to lower the car in way, just a standered hight replacement. I always used monroe gt sports in my last cars but they aren't available for the clubsport.

    Ladies and gentlemen of the VE forum

    My a/c compressor just failed on my 08 HSV clubby, not a cheap fix. Also the plastics trim around the seats cracks and break easily. I just drove from Perth to the Deni ute muster and racked up 7,000ks in 10 days with no problems what so ever.

    xforce exhaust no pulse/lope

    Xforce are a joke. My system didn't fit, The welds cracked around the muffles after a 2 months and it sounded ****. The the best thing i did was to give naaf on here a call and get a Manta system that fitted. It sounded great. My new LS3 will be getting the same treatment.
