Default carisma gtb damping.

My gtb is massively over damped. Setting the f/r ride height is impossible.

What pistons and oil are the top drivers using on carpet?

Hi mate i'm running the pro pistons in mine, they are about £2 from Trackside Spares if you want to fit them, its very easy. It gives the fluid A LOT more movement inside the shock.

I currently run 45 rear and 37.5 front with the harder Black springs up front. Anything under about 40 on the rear with the pro pistons is a little soft for my liking. Tbh the pro pistons are a massive help.

Do you know the diameter and number of holes in the pro pistons?

I don't know the size of them but they have 3 holes in and the same diameter as the kit ones. They have the same number as the kit ones but the holes are bigger. You get 2 sizes in each pack.

I'm not sure, i bought the Green pro shocks with the pro pistons already fitted.

Buy the pro pistons, they are like £2 and will give you all the options of using thicker/thinner oils
