I purchased two 73 914’s, for 3200 total. Great price, i believe but both cars are beautiful fust buckets. Tons of laborious work ahead. Here’s original photos from about 2 months ago (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Does anyone have a pro and con list of shocks and struts compared to the price. I want to go with KYB gas adjust, is that ok for performance?

If you want economical and good street driving go Boge. If you can only afford kyb’s, save your money until you can spend more. |

I do have the money, but i dont really understand the difference in the shocks and struts from one to another |
