bought pair of 140 lbs. progressive rear springs. car is fitted with stock front and rear sway bars. is spring rate so high that rear sway bar is not needed or desirable? running 195/60/15 tires thanks. |

I really think an adjustable front AR bar is an awesome upgrade. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
My KYBs were old and super stiff, felt every crack in the road. New KONI Yellows on STIFF setting were more comfortable and perform better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) If you plan to race with a load, get your 914 dialed in with that in mind...like spare tire(s) installed, full tank of gas, tool box(es). Also, not sure what you meant about tires being near stock, but going to low profile (50s) tires will really feel great on the corners. 195/50s reduce gearing a bit, I've had these for 2 yrs and like how it helps my 1.7 out of the corners. Have fun (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
