Default PROflex suspenion, anyone know stuff about it

Many race cars here in Europe are using this brand. It is all out race/autoX suspension and I heard good things about it. I wonder why no one is using it here.....there is also a ITR for sale in Belgium which is equipped with such an proflex.

Hahaha, why do you keep creating new topics about suspensions. Why not ask it all in one thread.....

I don't know the PROflex, but I've seen many race teams using Eibach coilovers....

Its very good. Generally custom made to suit your car and style of racing. In Australia it is at least AUD$2000(US$1000) per corner. Mostly used by Racing teams, I have never seen a street car with it.

Quote from an ITR with it `aluminium bodied coil over shocks, externally adjustable rebound & bump'.

If you really want more info I have a friend with Proflex in his car.

damn, 4000 USD for an all out track suspension setup nizze, but I thinkI will not afford it.

Where are proflex dealers, do they have a homepage, I have found nothing on google.

Proflex suspension is usually found on rally cars as opposed to track cars. It's very good and also very expensive! If you're looking for this level of equipment you should also look at http://www.ohlins.com/ . Also, http://www.dmshocks.com/ produce suspension for road, rally and track and is a little better priced than Proflex and Ohlins. I used to have Leda suspension on my impreza http://www.ledasuspension.co.uk/
