Konis and ground control or QA1 HAL?

Wich one do you recommend? The QA1 are a lot cheaper but ive heard a lot of good words about them.

There is no adjusteble ride height in the rear with the QA1 if I've got it right?

I don't have either ones, but when i do mine i will be using Koni's and the G.C. kit.

I think the QA1 is more of a drag racing setup.

Its says that the QA1 shock are 12-step adjusteble and made for handling. They also have a R-series for 93-02 f-body wich is specially made for drag racing.

IF you want handling get the koni's
if you have lots of money and want hadleing get the coilover from LG
if you want a bit for drag then twisties go with Q1A

I love my QA1's.

For an everyday shock that can be dialed down to run the strip or stiffer to cut the twisties... they are very hard to beat. Not to mention they're cheap to rebuild.

There's a guy selling a single QA1 ("brand new never installed") on ebay right now. Might be a good buy if you haven't made a decision yet. At least it'd cut a considerable chunk out of your total expenditure.

Good luck!

Koni DA/SA and Eibach's combo here, absolutely love them. The car 'lost' about 1000lbs in feel, it's all of the sudden a competent sports car, not a tub on wheels.
