Sundays Autosolo FDMC was not only great fun but put paid to the tyres (knew they
were just about legal to start with) and it turns out one of the rear shocks!
I'll replace them as a pair as the current ones are a bit too short on travel.
So any comments/feedback appreciated on which of the above you think most suitable as replacements.
Car is a CEC with live axle and used for fast road, track-days and Autosolos.
Thanks in anticipation.
Cheers, Pewe 
Protech always get good reviews.
another vote for protech, have had all of the other 3 fitted to various cars, very happy with protech
i'll be changing from GAZ to protech in the next couple of weeks
does nobody bother with a Nitron's or Ohlins on a 7 type or does the cost just put everyone off.
had previous experience with both and couldn't fail to be impressed, although the ohlins needed servicing more. I've got protech on the
Indy, but i haven't driven it yet so couldn't comment
edit because im a spelling/grammer mong

Might be able to organise another small bulk buy on protechs.
I had Nitrons on my Elise, and they were really good, miles ahead of the original Konis (well, no surprise there, they were new in 1998), but also miles ahead of a 2-year old set of Bilsteins (Lotus' current standard fitment). They're about £600 a set (maybe more for a customised setup for a 7) but I really can't fault them, they were excellent.
Hi
Live axle requires special valving to take account of the high unsprung weight. This is not available as STD from any of the basic suppliers GAZ AVO
or PROTECH. It is a service i can offer as i valve the dampers specifically for the applications required.
Nitrton . There's no point really go straight to Quantum if spending that sort of money.
Cheers Matt
Thanks for the replies.
Sounds as if Protech may be best as the pot's not limitless.
Matt you have U2U.
Cheers, Pewe

Hi
Avo say lots of things. But they go quiet if you say your having them independently Dyno tested.
