I have spent the better part of the morning looking for springs and shocks for our vert. Most all of the spring manufacturers seem to be excluding the convertible (weight reasons?). Anyone got any recommendations based on what they have used. The car may be autocrossed some, and get driven hard somewhat regularly to boot. Will the ones listed for the other models work out ok?

Thanks for the info in advance,
James

 

I have Suspension Techniques springs with Tokico Illuminas, and that combo works well.

 

I had the Eibach's with Tokico blues and I didn't like it. I now have ST springs and AGX struts and I love them.

 

I have Intrix with Tokico shocks. They're a little stiff, but I like the combo.

 

The ST springs are good, but thy suck with 18" wheels on New York City streets. I think I have a headache.

 

would these springs lower the vert?
or just make it more stiff and make it better on the road? (or both?)

 

Both.

 

Thanks again for the info guys. It looks like the ST springs might just be the answer. Now, all I gotta do is just find the shocks and struts. I hope I can do as well there as I did on my SA22C. I just picked Koni Adjustables for all four corners on ebay new in box for $90 + shipping for the '80.

 

I actually picked the ST springs on the recommendation of Trey Cobb when he worked at RP. Even though they didn't sell them he said they were the best choice. Another option would be Ground Control coilovers, but you'll need good shocks/struts for them.
