Ok here's my problem..
I have a 97 EK1 fitted with SPAX coilovers by the previous owner. The front right shock is now ****ed. I've been in contact with a SPAX dealer and they say that the coilovers are now discontinued but they can make me a new pair of shocks @ $550 each shock..

As far as i know the rest of my shocks are fine, although they may be getting old. So what would you do in my situation? Just pay for the new shocks or look into finding a whole new suspension setup?

Any recommendations of brands etc...

hahah they need to update the school curriculum ;P

but yeh he's dead right.. 'Spax' are for spax at that price... just get a new set of coilovers for ~$1,500 will get you something pretty dang good.
