Quote.“Road” mounts are stiffer than the original equipment so may give some perceptible vibration. The race kit is 15-20% stiffer than the road kit. Competition systems have an isolation threshold above 3000RPM, below which the transmitted vibration can still be quite high. This allows us to make the system much stiffer to control engine movement to a minimum, typically less than 3mm (compared with 25-30mm for an OEM system). |

No idea on time frame either at the moment - I am still tempted to go direct to vibratechnics and see if they can match prices ? |

If there is an issue with spoox i think we should stick with vibratechnics as although spoox is slightly cheaper there reputation seems to much poorer. With this sort of feedback im not to willing to hand over money if the product isnt going to be delivered? With Miles leaving thats 4 sets of bushes gone instantly. Better to try and get 15% from vibratechnics is my veiw. Sorry guys________________________________________ Super high boost Completed, destroyer of gearboxes and 160mph club |

I have no experience of spoox, but my experience is that the industry surrounding old cars seems to attract a lot of shysters who are more than happy to rip customers off, and even seem to take a certain pride in it. It is one of the big disadvantages of having anything to do with old cars - and a big reason why I spent a few years out of the car scene. I agree that if there is an issue with spoox, we should go with vibratechnics. I can't be @r$ed risking potentially spending months trying to get money back etc. ________________________________________ Cherry Rallye SOLD |

agreed also if their has been issuses with spoox in the pastI purchased a starter motor and lower ball joints couple of weeks ago phoned them up paid over phone guy was imo helpfull & friendly he even threw a few nylocs for the pich bolts the parts turned up couple of days later no problems. But if u guys dont want to use them best out come would be Vibra's matching the price although spoox are cheaper because their is no v.a.t on their suspention bits well so they say |

The worlds a small place so I try and treat others how I would want to be treated and not rip anyone off for something they don;t need. I do quite often follow this route as it's the best solution, Not money even thou we could all do with moreMay sound odd from a business point of view but I bet if you rang allot of companies they would sell you something at any cost wither it be right or wrong ________________________________________ 306 Rallye Sptint/Race Car, 205 CTI 1.9 8v to name a fewRoad, Track and Race/Rally car preparation to your personal requirements, Full Workshop & Diagnostic Facilities New and Second parts, from Plugs to Turbo's We now also carry out Routine Servicing www.pugracing.com & FB Page, https://www.facebook.com/PugRacing Ebay; http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Pug-Racing-Shop 2012/2013/2014/2019 Class Winners at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb & Joint overall, Class record too along the way, |

If they have stitched you up in the past then fair enough as money isn't everything, stand by morals and pay a bit extra for piece of mind. I'm happy to give Vibratechnics ago. As they manufacture the parts I'm sure they could easily compete with spooks although they would need to give 25% discount on their kits to compete with spooks 15% offer just have to wait a see what they say to chris. |

Just buy direct from vibratechnics for the best price they will do is my vote,I am not interested in spoox if their reputation is poor. I will be buying 1st week of august so hopefully we can get enough parties interested.
