What was the noticeable difference in the handling of the DMS's. More travel as in flat out over bumps & rises & rear wheels not spinning, less body roll, more slide, quicker turing, tyre wear, your thoughts are appreciated & wanted, cheers.
Considering that my old suspension setup was stuffed (Monroe shocks leaking oil) it was an improvement in every way possible haha
Lets see:
* Over bumps it takes the initial hit a bit harder than my old setup, but not in an extremely harsh way (hard to explain) and before you know it you feel the wheels are planted back onto the road. Small bumps are very noticeable just driving on a road you will feel the car jumping up and down ever so slightly, because of this the first time you drive your car, you expect to break your back when you hit a large bump, but you are surprised as it feels smooth over the larger bumps (again hard to explain).
* Tyre wear is **** but that's my fault as I got more negative camber put into the front when they were installed, I have a series 1 VT so the back tires don't last long as well lol.
* Rear wheels used to spin all the time but that was with not as good tires, I now run Pirelli Pzero nero's on my car and get minimal wheel spin, I also have an open diff which doesn't help, soon to be a LSD.
* About 8 months ago I had a swaybar link pin break, I didn't notice it was broken until I went to service my car. I had driven it hard on a certain road that day and it felt fine, I did not notice one bit of abnormal body roll in my car that day or any previously, it was as if the pin was not broken and the swaybar was still doing what it's needed to do. I have read before that Greg from GSL has previously run a Hyundai Excel rally car with no swaybars as the DMS's eliminated nearly all the body roll of the car.
* When I jack my car up from the front or the rear jacking points, my car lifts both wheels off the ground of the side I'm jacking up.
With 30 bump & rebound adjustments you can find the right setup for your liking.
Speak to Greg as he looked after me with the DMS's.
Hope this helps, if you have any other questions I can try to answer them for you.
Cheers
Glenn
