Does Moton make anything that works with a MINI? This is obvious for hard core track guys, but I am just curious if anyone has heard anything about Moton doing anything for the car.

 

I talked to several Moton dealers last week, they said the clubsport version for our mini is still under development, Im getting them once Moton release the kit.

Price should be around $2500-$3000 and they dont come with springs

If I were looking for a virtually infinate adjustable range coil overs I would be looking at LEDAS right now......

 

Leda's double adjustable with remote reservoir cost over $3000!

 

Why do you need remote resevoirs?

Oh and the Double adjustable gas emulsified shocks w/springs and remote resevoirs are only $2500. But none of us need all of that. The basic 24 position adjustable with gas emulsified oil would work well for any of us and the price tag is only $2100.

 

Only...$2100.00..don't you just love these MINI guys and gals.

IMHO, $2100 is totally insane... I was talking to a track junkie/racer friend from the UK this week, and he was telling me he can get a full set of custom-valved 'shockers' (as he called them) with remote reservoirs for maybe $800 USD. Needless to say, I'll be calling him up when I want to replace my struts...

 

Do a little research on Motons. They are in another league compared to Ledas top of the line. They compete primarily with Penske, Koni 2812, JRZ, and the like. Ledas are nice, but they are not Motons. If you watch Speed World Challenge, you will see many of the cars running Motons. I know that most of the front running Porsche club racers run them.

That being said, unless you are trying to eek out a few tenths/lap and you know how to tune a suspension, it won't matter. You would have just as much fun on a set of Koni yellows as you would Motons. If you want to run at the front of a class that allows this level of suspension, Motons are great.

Just asking cuz a friend wants to know. I know I definetely couldnt utilize motons

 

Here's a quote from a Ground Control (the company that supplies countless BMW racers with their suspensions) employee from another board I'm on. I think it speaks for itself.

In the case of the MINI, its not 50k, but then again 25k isn't exactly cheap either.

That's not the clubsport version. Do you have any info on that car?
