suspension help

[sdenton8]

Yea how much do those run? I'll have to look into the agxs some more. What's the best setting for street use? I want a nice ride

Well, if you do want to spend money id get AGX. BUT, considering youre getting vogtlands Id settle for GR2's. Why? Well, Vogtlands on GR2's ride very well. Now with AGX u can play with the setting, but because your drop isnt drastic, it wont matter much. I say save some money if youre going Vogtland route. Or, get AGX and SSC's or eibachs and enjoy the lowerness.

I personally snatched a set of AGX + SSC, but i cant comment on the ride yet since theyre not on the car.

700 for the comfort valving and around 1000 for the HD valving.

Wow that's a lot for struts. I was wondering about that cuz like you said the vogtlands aren't that big of a drop. Anyone know the exact drop they give or a shortcut to a site that has that info? I looked on their website and it said its like a 1.2" drop. I still like that package deal 4 gr2s with vogtland springs. I looked at eibachs and the site said they are 1.3 front and 1 rear. But I heard the scc are good with the gr2s cuz they are a soft spring. Any info on that?

Hope you got the anti pogo washers. You will need them. I had this combo for a bit and after about 10K miles the GR2's started going out. That's what swayed me to the GMPP lowering kit which I have been running for awhle now.

im replacing every suspension part there is up front and most of rear including anti pogos and shortened dog bones..

if you look in my lowering thread there are a whole mess of pictures of people's cars lowered on different springs.

I got agx and ssc. I like the combo. $444 for struts, $200 for springs

They're supposed to outlast OE struts.

You can get away with GR2's with vogtlands.

I know the agxs are better then the gr2s but if those work together ok I mite go that way cuz all my extra money is going into building my tranny and more on the motor. Would gr2s and vogtland be a harsh ride or no cuz its just a minimal drop. Less drop less harsh ride correct? Thanks for all your input guys. If I didn't want to build my tranny I would of gone with coilovers.

 

[rocafella2032]

Yeah, won't be harsh. Just do it

 

[sdenton8]

Will I need the anti pogo washes with that setup? I mean will they help with just a small drop. Then what about shorter dogbones? I'm gonna be putting headers on this summer and I heard of clearance problems with headers when you lower your car.
