well here's the set-up ........... i have goldline springs, but the front ones were cut about .50 in. or maybe more...(i had to cut it cuz the drop was not low enough) there's barely any springs left.. ,but i'am thinking about buying the koni yellows shocks for the front.. ..my question is will the koni yellows decrease the bounciness of the ride..?? the car is too damn bouncy........i mean really bouncy..........!!![IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]
I know what you mean. Especially here in Houston. I had to buy the Konis. It did get rid of a lot of bounciness but it will never be like stock. I think you blew out your shocks like did. Just buy all four Konis and it should stop bouncing. I bought mine at Racing Evolution but if you want to save money order them from Tornactive for like 550 shipped
BTW where in Houston are you from[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

a lot of the bounciness may have come from you cutting your springs. lots of aftermarket springs were designed to lower the ride AND be stiffer so the ride doesn't get too bouncy. basically you did the same thing as cutting your stock springs - it lowered the car, but decreased the ride quality cause the spring wasn't meant to be that short. my suggestion: get new springs that are designed to be as low as you want them, spend the money, and then spend some more money on shocks and you should be good to go.
