914World.com _ 914World Garage _ critical damping

Posted by: sunfloweryellow914 Mar 22 2004, 05:24 PM

Does anyone know what shocks to use to get critical damping for the rear of a stock 914 withe 100lb. springs?

Can anyone suggest a link for optimizing 914 suspension for street and also for performance?

You will want a 2 or 3 way adjustable shock, Moton, JRZ, Penske, Koni, and Afco makes a great shock with remote resevoir , Also Fox..

Most of those are serious racing equipment, and are overkill for street use...

Koni yellow sports are the ones to get as they are adjustable and damn good shocks.

I dont have a link... but I have a clue.

Koni. I can tell from your 100lb spring rates that you dont need a 5 way adjustable shock. A simple adjustable Koni would work fine.
