[urq] Suspension modification inquirypackley packley at verizon.netSun Aug 17 07:50:40 PDT 2008
What are the opinions for a good streetable suspension mods (I have H&R springs/Koni adjustable shocks) for a high horsepower 20V modified urq? All other parts are correct and car has all new bushing/suspension pieces, 2Bennett Big brake kit, AAN rears, etc. One of the reasons I did not make the Colorado event despite no AC was the car handles bumps so poorly. I suspect the Konis are adjusted full hard so any bump is like a jack-hammer. I want to avoid coil-overs if I can, although I recognize they give the most adjustability, my experience on race cars is they are noisy which won't do on a street car. It would appear 2 1/2" coilover springs also eliminate the problems caused by large stock springs and clearance issues. Should I consider upgrading to 91+ vintage coupe struts? This requires other things like hub mods to get 5 bolt to work, etc. which seems to be a lot of extra work. Any tips from the group of what has worked would be helpful. Pardon me if I missed other discussions on this topic. thanks for your help
