Koni shocks and Spring questions
Hello all,
I'm just starting the process of up grading my stock suspension on my 80. I purchased a pair of Koni front strut inserts for a steal and was thinking of pairing them with Tokico Blues.
What setting should i set the Koni's at to match the Tokico's in the rear?????
I was also thinking of getting a set of springs, however im not too keen on having the car sitting on the 'deck' nor do I want to induce back problems from a stiff ride.
Is it practical to stiffen up the front spring rates (ie RB springs) and leave the rears stock?? Or should i just save the money and leave all stock springs in??
I will be useing the car mostly as a daily driver and participating in some auto-x's and maybe a track day or two.

I've got brand new shocks too. I'm thinking install the new (gas) shocks first and see how it rides, and if it's to mushey i'll get some new coils and install them. I'm also thinking of new bushings while i'm there.

I will be ordering a set of swaybar endlink and tension bushings. For $40 US i figure it might be worth the up grade.
From what i have read its best to leave the rears alone.
PS. Sorry about posting my 1st message twice. The web page kept timing out thus I did think it posted.
