Yep, that's why I'm not too bummed about it! (archive)

In Reply to: Bright side: you get to upgrade your suspension! posted by Tim T on February 18, 2001 at 18:06:41:

You and Micah hit the strut right on the stop - I get to put a nicer suspension on the car (assuming it really is dying/dead - seems as if the rear suspension is stiffer than I remember, another symptom...?). I'm leaning toward a Dinan Stage I setup, which lowers the car a little, mimics (allegedly) a stock ride, but reduces roll and pitch, and generally tightens things up.

Since this is primarily the wife's/kid's car, I'm not interested in lots of lowering or lots of stiffening (the 17" wheels do a nice job of tightening up the ride by themselves). Does anyone have a Dinan Stage I? Konis or Bilsteins? Observations?

Thanks,
Peter
