ok well ive got a blown shock on the rex and i might as well replace them all since they are all kinda old anyway. now i want nice shocks, not some pieces of shit that either perform like shit or dont last for shit. im also looking for something that would be a nice combo with my springs (GC). i know koni yellows would be the best, but i dont have 500 to shell out on shocks. i was looking at tokico illuminas but im unsure as to how pleased i will be with the ride/performance. adjustability is also something i want. im really looking for performance over ride comfort but i dont want my car to be all bouncy and shit. any other suggestions on shocks?
also another thing i want to know is if there is a way to know what the spring rates are on my springs. i did not purchase them nor did i have them installed. like previously stated they are Ground Control coilovers. can i check the part number or anything? or are they on the spring itself?
this is not a thread for everyone to post up what their suspension setup is and how you like your shocks and blah blah blah. im looking for answers based on a more technical sense. also, while everyones opinion is appreciated, im more looking for answers from people who know a good bit about suspensions and what is good and what is not, not neccessarily going by how it looks or anything.
oh and if you are going to tell me to buy a "real" suspension like full coilovers or something, just keep it to yourself. im not made of money and i simply dont have it to spend at this point in time (not saying i wont go with full coilovers someday )
well thanks in advance for everyones and anyones advice/opinions/suggestions
