Coilover for T2

Any recommendation on which coilover I should use for my T2? My car primarly is setup for track use. THANKS. If you have rebuild-able set for sale, I am listening...

What's your budget? % track,% street. Do you want the ability to overhaul the dampers in the future or customize the valving once your skill improves or it becomes track ONLY?

I'm running K2RD.com coilovers on my '87 SE with T2 brakes/rims/diff. 400# front 275# rear with adj AGX's. I like the setup... very stiff on the street (sometimes unbearable on rough roads... but on smooth roads it is great). I would probably go 350/225 if I ordered new springs. Don't forget about sticky tires now.

As yours is mainly a track car I'd get the stiff springs.

I'm no expert.... call GC and ask them for their recommendations. Jay knows his stuff. Or email Paul at K2RD.com for what he suggests.
