Just so as to keep a little 'balance' in the battle of suspension setups, I have the Spax Adjustables fitted currently and will be getting my Empire kit in the first wave of deliveries. I have put a few miles on the Spax setup now and have to confirm that they are fundamentally better than the fixed-rate stock items, no question. As I mentioned before, I was not able to drop the car to the low position that might have gotten the steering arms straight, due to exhaust-to-shock interference, but in hindsight that would have been too low for speed bumps and driveways to have been of much use.
So although the Spax kit is not as sophisticated as the Suplex adjustables, they are by no means a bad option and in fact for the £700 they cost (less than 50% of the spend of the new Suplex package) they offer 100% improvement over the stock Spax units. In my view these are a very good compromise and I am sure represent good value for money. It is just a shame that they were made available without reference to what was coming along next.
I will report back again of course once I have my Empire kit fitted.
