best sussy under $1100?

[Muzz]

Go top of the range shocks with nice springs, instead of super cheap coilovers.

I got koni yellows shipped from the states for $690 all up! If your interested let me know and ill tell you where to get them. Theyd be cheaper now too with our very strong exchange rate.

Say $300 for good springs and your $100 under budget.
Or even better, ground control coilovers with custom rate eibach springs.
Just got mine shipped from the states for $454 (rember it would now be cheaper with the current exchange rate), so $1144 all up for my Koni/custom ground control setup, Probably $1100 with the better current exchange rate. This would be cheaper by $55 or so if i went with ground controls "off the shelf" rates, instead of custom spring rates.

Benifits of going with excelent springs/shocks instead of cheap coilovers.
1. Life expectancy. If your lucky, youll get 2 years or so of use from a set of cheap coilovers. People have been running the same koni yellows for 10+ years without problems. Koni yellows come with a lifetime warranty, there built to last!

2. Coilovers around the $1100 mark are basically throw away items. When a single shock blows, its time to throw the set away, not worth rebuilding, if they can even be rebuilt.
With a supurb spring/shock combo, if you have an issue with one of the shocks simple, replace the single shock, or simply have it rebuilt/serviced, instead of forking out for a complete new suspension setup.

3. No choise of spring rate with cheap coilovers, you get what they give. Imported coilovers are often oversprung for our australian roads. Theres no option to change springs if your unhappy with the ride.
With a spring/shock combo, you can easily change springs if you want to alter the ride quality. This is one of the reasons i went with the ground control coilovers and springs, i can order pairs of eibach springs for $69US in any stiffness i want!

4.Theres tons of support here in australia for servicing koni shocks. Very little support for cheap jap/taiwan coilovers. Most cant be rebuilt or serviced anyway.

Performance of good shocks like koni's, is much greater than the performance of shocks in coilovers around your budget, theres plenty of shock dynos out there to show this. Great shocks with quality springs = better product than any coilovers with average shocks. All cheap coilovers have average or less than average shocks.

IMO Springs and shocks, untill your planned to spend over $2000 on coilovers.


I vote for the bellow, ITS IN YOUR BUDGET
