That set up is 74-up 911. Not recommend unless you are going racing. Bar is way to stiff for everyday use.

That set up is 74-up 911. Not recommend unless you are going racing. Bar is way to stiff for everyday use. However it was used as stock in 911s. Were they also too stiff? I do not want to make a mistake. Thanks! 911's are much heavier cars so the suspension doesn't always translate perfectly to a 914. the torsion bars and sway bars are stiffer on the 911 and can make for an overly stiff ride on a 914-4 thats not destined for track use. Everybody has there own preferences, driving style and road conditions but bigger isn't always better if you want a comfortable ride. |
