Spring ?'s

Does anyone know of a good place to get springs that will keep stock ride height but be stiff enough to take away front end dive and rear end squat? My car has both pretty bad and it needs to be delt with i am thinking of getting new shocks and struts also but if anyone has info on a stiffer spring lemme know thanks

Koni shocks will deal with most of it, and if you want to keep stock height just keep the stock springs and get big sway bars, my car practically doesnt dive at all under braking.

How does your car do under full throttle applications? Such as getting on it does ur car squat? and will the car do better with bigger sway bars front and rear? thanks for all the help

Car hardly squats at all, the shocks made the biggest difference, and the swaybars really helped too. If your interested in getting shocks make sure to get good ones, youll regret getting the cheapo ones.

Shocks alone will not mess with ride height, but with these Koni's you can lower the front 3/4" if you use the lower mounting perch.
