Ride Height, Need to fix Options

[falconfp2001]

I'm a noobie to the 914 but not to working on Air Cooled vehicles. Are replacement springs the only way to fix the sagging rear problem?

The car already rides kind of rough but I'd like a better height in the rear and a lower agressive stance in the front, while making it a smoother ride without the roll when cornering.

Any suggestions?

Took the car out today to get parts as I'm replacing the turn signal lever this weekend. Taking apart the dash was better than in a 74 Mazda Rx4 (first car). The only down side was the tight fit for the wires in the steering column.

It really rides nice as far as any car I've ever driven.A little bumpy but like a gocart the suspension is so tight but it's the profile that I don't like. It should sit more rakish than level. Level gives a more squat look in the rear. I want my car to look like it's ready to take off. Kinda like the Cuda looked. or the current Mustang stance. A persistent leaning forward look that all the big muscle cars had back in the day.

Thanks for all the advice. It really helps. All suggestions are good and the Tarret seems to be the best suggestions for racing but it's also just as economical as all the other options out there, surprisingly. It also helps that they are close.

if anyone lives close and can lend a hand with some work, I'd appreciate it. I can see this is going to add to my already obsession with air cooled vehicles.

My other car is a 74 Super Beetle. I love driving it. Almost the same ride as the 914 but I have always wanted a 914 and now I've got a big project.
