Quantum double adjustable shocks fitted

The shocks arrived last week. Quantum two Zero from Quantum Racing Suspension, less than 8 kg for 4 shocks plus springs. The springs are 2.25" dia and much shorter so lower weight, no issues with fitting or clearance. They specialize in clubman's so they were able to give some great advice. I also up-graded the springs and after doing a lot of research I went for 250# on the front and 170# on the rear (live axial). Quantum ran some checks after I provided the motion ratio and they confirmed the spring selection. I dealt with the owner who was extremely knowledgeable and very prompt. He also recalled his visit the Fraser Factory and he asked me in a surprised voice if they were still making cars upstairs.
I have taken it out once and the car feels so different, balanced going into the corners, very planted and much better driver feel. Still dialing in the rebound and bump.
