Hello from portugal + need help with a problem( cant find a help tread) 6 years 10 months ago #178327

Hello, my name is Pedro, im for portugal, and i own a mgf 1.8 88kw from 1996, i got this car about 2 years ago and i love it! It is a really nice car for some corners, perfect for a weekend ride. My only complaint with isthe suspension: every time i charge it, it only lasts for about 3 to 4 months before needing to be refilled. More recently, two of the spheres broke down, which means i have two options: either i find 4 new spheres and change them all ( because changing only two would leave the car very unballanced )or i buy a hydagas to coil suspension kit . As the spheres are no longer in production and it is hard to find them, i am more inclined to buy a suspension kit. Having searched the internet for suspension kits, i found the most common was the SUPLEX kit , but i cant find it in stock anywhere. So what i want to ask is which kit do you recommend me buying? and where can i find it in stock? ( i live in Portugal, EU). Of course the price is also an important factor.

Thank you for your time,

Pedro Rosado

:welcome: to the t bar.

There is a suplex kit one eBay uk at £1100 plus postage at the moment.

I've read quite a few bad things about the kit so I wouldn't bother with it.

The more cost effective way is to swap over to tf subframes and mgfntfbitz over here do a kit so it may be worth dropping them an email and see what they could sort you out with.

Welcome to the group.

Used spheres are not difficult, or expensive to find (unless it is a trophy car).

I am sure if you contact our UK specialist breakers you will find something at a sensible price.

Also try e-bay e.g.

Shipping worldwide is possible (no connection with seller).

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Suplex has had mixed reviews but there is a kit available from the Sydney MG centre which is apparently very good.
