So, I'm finally starting to spend some money on my car and first up is springs & shocks. Need some opinions from you wise ones out there. Do you have a preference between Tein S-techs vs SpringTech?? What's your experience??
Thanks all! Amy 98 GT Hatchback (and 98 Convertible I'm looking to sell if anyone's interested!) -------------------- [font="Comic Sans MS"]White 98 GT Convertible, Black 98 GT Hatchback & 77 GT Coupe[/fo[size="3"][/size]nt]

greetings from another "mature" 6gc owner.
last spring i put Tein S-tech springs and KYB GR2 struts, i also went with a 17" replacement wheel and 215/40 tyres. what a difference it made. although the ride is a little stiffer and the car a little lower, i feel better contact with the road. i feel more confident in turns. your profile says you were looking for a "fun" car, something you drive for sheer pleasure. these are not powerful vehicles but they sure are fun to throw around a windy road. making these changes to your suspension will definitely increase your driving pleasure, regardless of which setup you choose. PS we should start a 40+ club in the 6gc. This post has been edited by axelrduvirage: Mar 10, 2009 - 8:15 AM -------------------- ![]() |
