Congrats on a fantastic looking car.
I would say that even on Bilsteins the ride is definatly on the firm side especially if you are used to a more modern (plush) daily driver. There is a bit of brain calibration needed to simply get used to it. It gets a bit better at speed but poor roads will always be felt. Tire pressures make a big difference, I ran my 15" at 26-29 psi.

I hear you there, definately but, it rides way stiffer than my '74 does. There's something not right in that back end.
We'll see, I put Bilsteins and new 914rubber springs on the 74 and it made a very nice difference from what was in there before. Hopefully it will do the same on the 75.
I just have to get a moment or two together and take a look.
