Hey fellas, I've decided before advancing any further into the turbo swap, my suspension is in desperate need of attention.
I've done the reading around the site, took a look at the parts catalog, and searched a bit, and I'm going with the KYB AGX shocks, and Eibach lowering springs (-1.5"Rear/-1.4" Front)
I'm going to try to get these through my work at a discounted price, and I just need to make sure I'm getting the right part numbers for a front wheel drive dsm to cross reference from KYB..
One question I still have that I can't seem to find a solid answer, are different shocks/struts required when lowering the car? I remember reading somewhere that the height of the strut body had to be shorter to accommodate the shorter springs.
Here is a link to the shock/struts I was looking at.
