Which shocks to buy?
Which shocks to buy?
I have heard all kinds of stuff on shocks. I have heard Hal's are the sh**. I am in need of new front shocks especially. I am considering bilsteins, kyb's, hal's, and stock replacements. Price is kind of a consideration. It's not a drag car anymore. I want streetability. I dont want a worse ride than it already has. Please let me know what you guys think on this issue. thanks, Michael
I just bought a set of Hals... whish I had seen this GP before ordering but oh well. I don't know what you're into driving-wise, but with the Hal's adjustability, there is likely to be a setting there that you'll like. My car is still coming along (new motor and everything) so I can't comment on the ride first hand but the quality of the QA-1 is par excellence. Plus the shock is rebuildable for less than the price of most new shocks/struts.
If I were an auto-x guy, I'd probably just go with a Koni or Bilstein but for road and drag-race, the shock is an excellent buy in my opinion.

I've heard good things about bilsteins. I can get them for half of the price of hal's. I dont drag race, and chances are good that i would prolly never switch the settings on the shocks. If i dont use my car at the track are they worth the extra money. Bilsteins come with a lifetime warranty. If they go bad, they replace them. Hal's dont have crap for a warranty. I'm leaning towards bilstein's. Anybody else got an opinion. Thanks, Michael
I bought the HD Bilsteins and couldn't be much happier with them and I do road course duty with my car a lot.
But, If I had the money I would definitely consider the Hals...as a buddy has them and they are awesome at the road course with the adjustability for the drag strip.
