well I have sold another possesion to get more cash for the teener...

so my question is this ...

if the current set up is out back: stock sways and 140# springs

in front : turbo tie rods, koni yellows , and stock sways

am I gonna be out of "balance " .. do I need to upgrade to the 19mm sways in the front?

.....I also plan in the near future to add the koni yellows to the rear...

or should I add the koni out back before it is nessisary to swap the front sways?

Actually that is a pretty typical set up here in Norcal. Our old classification of Bi (B improved) used 140s in the rear with/without sway, konis or bils.
Front was stock torsions with either stock or adjustable 19 or 22 sway bar. Konis or bils.

works very nicely for a street driven car with some AX or Track duty.
Had 2 914-4s with that set up and they drove very nicely. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Stock sway and 140's is going to be tail happy... BTDT.... way too "exciting"...

Go up to 19mm sway to balance the 140's...


...or something stiffer on both ends
