You should flip the spring rates

Great choice! And you can always upgrade down the road. Either by getting into some GC's or by revalving the shocks!

Ah awesome. Really found what I was looking for then. What do you mean by revalving the shocks?

BTW, my hood latch isnt locking, anyone have any ideas as to why? I cant close the hood. Its been happening lately. If I leave the car untouched for hours and come back to it, it closes. But I can keep pushing down and down up and down again and it will not close! The latch wont stay down, i have pushed it down but it just springs back up, it does not lock so I know its the latch and not the hood. So frustrating!

Check your hood latch cable. Stick your finger down where the hood latch cable connects to the hood latch and push the cable down.

Im having a hard time finding the cable and pushing it down, plus what would that do? it would come right back up since the hood is raised (cant fit hand in there with the hood closed obviously) . Im clueless about this damn thing! All Ive managed is to get my hands super dirty. I wonder whats causing it.

Ill take pictures tomorrow, the front hook thingy also seems to be a little too forward. I tried moving it closer to the motor but no luck, the thing wont bend or stay. Its like 1/4 inch in front of the latch.

Koni will revalve the shocks when they blow out, and you can have them put in a stiffer valve to run higher spring rates, or even have them match the valving to your specific setup by the individual shock.

They aren't Volks But...I don't really care for the T/A look either. Wish I had some authentic SW's or Rega's in white. Car's for sale now, we'll see. Trying to get a beater with a/c for a while to pay off some bills...then it's Lotus or STi time.

Friends garage...Lotus, STI, GTO
