Nitron just called. Looks like I am going to have to put some new springs on as well due to corrosion.

I knew I should have bought a new S2 ...

I now have a reassuringly large bill for a nitron rebuild , with new springs and helper springs.

Share the damage, out of interest :mrgreen:

Seems no matter how much you pay, aftermarket shocks need refurbing far more often than you'd like to think.

The coilovers have been refurbished and 4 new springs plus helpers purchased.

Sadly I have broken and had an op to remove my submandibular gland in my neck. This means I cant drive at the moment. So I cant collect my car. Really missing the exige TBH.

It will be going for a full alignment when I get it back then planning on Anglesey in 2020 and Blyton. I would like to do Donnington this year as well.

Thanks chaps. Was advised to take two weeks off work. Took 2 days.

They joys of being self employed
