What is your budget?

What kind of racing are you going to use them for? Autocross, track, Driving school events?

How much of the time are you going to run them on the street?

Are you looking for used or new.

Let me know if you can't find something for use on the street and can be adjusted for autocross or track that runs less than $1600.

I was testing this weekend at Willow Springs for the upcoming East vs West Mini Cooper challenge. I was running a set of barrowed H&R coilovers and they were way to soft for My driving style . So I need a set of "full race" not autocross/street shocks. The H&R are said to be performace street/ some track shock better suited for a screen door in my opnion! As far as budget, cheap is the word . The H&R were barrowed from a sponsor,so Im tring to find "a SWEET deal". I shred tires,so thats where the "budget" went! Thanks,Bob

I've seen a few RACE suspensions out there on the market.........you've got

Patec Suspensions
Leda's

there are a few more out there but as far as RACE suspensions go.........you can't go wrong with the MOTON's! If money is no object.........they do have the unbelieveable 4way adjustable coilovers.........custom built for you!

They were the street coilovers not the rss! Champaign desires & Budweiser budget! So this would rule out the motons. I think for the money the PSS-9’s are my main option, unless I find a Super sponsor! Just dreaming out loud

http://www.shox.com has the lowest new price that I've seen on the PSS9's at $1500.

If this is a track-only car, I'd contact Advance Design and see if they're offering a Mini fitment yet.

I have an almost new set of H&R RSS coilovers that I may consider selling. They were used about 3 months. What are you looking to spend?
