Anything further to report, some of us are dying of anticipation and now very tired factory suspension... ha hah ha..
Moved to Mt Isa with work and the whole family and now also with F6Concorde's Ghia Turbo in the family. Roads are certainly rougher and its finished off our first Territorys suspension. Keep up the hard work and quality, boys!

Hey Cobramad,
Yep, development all done and first production run is being finished and then will be on our next shipment to Australia.
We have pounded the Terri kit for a while now on some very crap roads with no issues with any of the components.
Now we are doing some final designs for the 2WD, then we can support both models.
I will post soon when stocks are available.
Cheers
Brett

Hey Cobramad,

Yes haha I know, I know. Terri dampers are on the way from Korea and will be here in the next few weeks. We did have a delay with the rear spring but that has been resolved. If you are keen we have the development set of Terri dampers that have been rebuilt and as new again for $1200. You would have to use the factory rear spring until we get stock of the new design though. For the $1200 we can supply the front coilover with top mount and the inverted adjustable rear damper as well. We had the Terri dampers outback towing a caravan and all went very well.

Sorry mate, we have been so busy developing the Ford brakes and other damper models but they are on the way and will post when we have the full kits in stock!!
Cheers
Brett

Hey akubraman,
We have stocks of the full Terri kit available from next week. We have the kits now however, (this may sound a little strange) I want to confirm the rear spring in the new kits perform exactly the same and deliver the same heights as the prototype parts. We are doing this test in the next couple of days. I just want to be totally sure the production batch is the same as what we signed off on in regards to the rear spring. We have taken way to long getting this package ready for sale and for that we are sorry but we always test a lot before going to sale.
Cheers
Brett

(My first time - be gentle) Shockworks have been using my Turbo Terri for development. I can confirm the research effort that has gone into refining the kit. Brett took my Turby went from OK-ish standard, to a total transformation of ride and handling. The car felt like it lost 50% of its weight, and became very light and nimble. The cornering is dead flat, it soaks up big and small bumps, AND its comfy. I'm talking BMW 5 series ride refinement. With the AWD and (upgraded) power, I have surprised RWD Porsche and Ferraris through twisty bits - true story! The dampers are perfect, but getting the mounts and springs right has taken time. Soon though, very soon. It is worth waiting for; do not be tempted by anything else.

I've waited so long now that there is simply no alternative..... just a bit longer.. lol
Just wondering if the dampers are rebuildable when worn?

I'll ask Brett for certain, but I would say yes.

BTW Mine is in at the end of this week to get measured up for an adapter to allow for their GT front brake kit fitment. That'll be the final check for rear springs too, so....

Hey Cobramad,

We have the kits in stock for the Terri but I am not completely happy with the rear spring I developed as we can not lower the Terri as much as I wanted. I made some assumptions that were incorrect. All the rest of the kit is perfect but the rear spring sits the Terri at normal height. Now we have to wait for a shorter coil which we can supply to you later if you are keen for the kit.
Cheers
Brett

Our dampers are fully rebiuldable at the cost of $80 each. This includes all valving, seals, dividing piston, oil and anything else but that pretty much covers all the internals.
Also what we normally do is update the dampers with the latest level codes if we have made any improvements during that time.

And BTW, I said that I'd beaten a Porsche and a Ferrari around corners. True story, but ONLY in the wet. The RWD cars just could get their power down, so the Terri just walked away from them. Fun watching them trying to get traction - in the rearview mirror.

Hey guys
Can these be wound up higher than factory height?
Looking at some all terrain tyres and a trip to Frazer with a 200 series cruser to drag me through the tougher stuff?

Hey Tyre Licker,

I think we talked on the phone but yes the dampers will go higher then the factory height. We did not test how far the kit will raise the Terri but sure you can get an extra 20mm more then factory height.
Let me know how you go:-)

Cheers
Brett
