Thread: suspension replacement

it time for me to get new shocks and struts is there any way for it not to be slow low in the rear? also what do you recommended for suspension? i was looking at the kyb gr2 struts

I have kyb gr2 struts and vogtland springs coming for mine.

vogtland? are they lowering or stock

they are the least drop of the lowering springs. They are the springs that where used on the GTX's IIRC. They also maintain stock handling.

o. i really don't want to lower my car. i just want to put new shocks and to keep the rear from sagging when i take off

GR2 are a good upgrade for stock springs, but they a little stiffer so your car will handle slightly better, but ride a little rougher. if youre a baby then just get regular stock replacements or monroe.

If you dont want to lower, I would just get some quick struts and not **** with taking the struts apart and putting them back together.

Vogtlands aren't that much lower than stock. They give a nice, even gap all the way around, and look like the car should have looked from the factory (i.e. not like a 4x4). Ride quality and comfort are still good.

If you don't want the rear to sag (common problem as GP's age), some people have gotten good results by using Intrigue rear springs with stock front springs. The Intrigue springs are higher, so even when they settle your car won't look like a dog dragging its butt on the carpet.

Vogtland springs with AGX struts:

quickstruts from Rockauto.com, cant beat em for what you get and still stay stock. Unless your looking for better handling to then get the quickstrut kyb's. By far the best and easiest way to go if you want stock height
