thanks for that,,,,has anyone on here done the swap for the zr gear if so is there a vast improvement..cheers all.
I think someone was looking into doing it, maybe Frekkel, cant remember though.
From my experience though I would suggest coilovers. They're more expensive but the handling is so much better than any standard MG-Rover product.

I did it
and... not bad, not bad. but if it's an improvement? I couldn't say. Some things are better, others not. but they are close. I did it because the brm dampers and springs had done 120.000 km and I could buy some zr160 stuff that had done 20.000 for very few €. But now I'm looking for coilovers myself. The 17" rims where a better improvement for the handling
