Advise on suspension/brake mods

[AshDVS]

i did rate them highly for comfort mate, and even though they are not designed for lowering springs the ride was excellent, and body control was much improved over standard. it was just suggested to me once id fitted the FSDs that Koni Yellow would be more suitable, as they are designed to go with lowering springs.

This is what Andy has on his R.

The XC90 set up has just been completed by Stephen Evans on his fake R diseasel

Its pretty much the same setup as i used to run, now being run by Pete, they have just upgraded the parts.

This is a good, budget conversion. It's well done and will make a nice difference over stock. It just won't work on a P80 850/C70/S70/V70.

Doesn't look like it will fit P1's

Correct.

Nope the xc90 with not fit what so ever it's the v50 t5 320 mm x25mm kit that will fit and ash dvs sells adapters

The 320mm conversion that we offer is visually similar to the calipers in the links above, fitted to the S60.
It uses the rotor and caliper from a S40/V50T5 AWD or LS-LV Ford Focus ST.
It requires zero modification to the vehicle and is a bolt-on solution. It requires minor machine work to the donor hardware. Super simple.

People seem to be split 50:50 Koni yellow's or FSD's.....main differences ?

FSD are a good fit for standard ride height but not great for lowered ride height - they typically get rattley quite quickly and ride a little harsher than they should.
The Koni Sport Adjustable yellows are very good - I'd go for these or a Bilstein B6.

I'd suggest H&R springs too as they're ride just a little better than the Eibach (not much in it, the Eibach will likely be better suited than the H&R for a track day though. It is noticably a little firmer).

Our website has been popular this month, we've exceed our bandwidth limit. It'll be back up on April 1st. Happy to answer any questions via PM if you like.

ATE super blue is what I've used in the past, although it's been discontinued due to eu meddling.

I had success with ebc yellowstuff and ferodo ds2500 but I'm assured the carbotech compounds are far superior.

Ebc redstuff ceramic is singularly the worst braking experience I've ever had.

You could also use Motul RBF600 too.
There are some good pad options from Project Mu and Hawk as well for the 320mm brakes.
