i have bilsteins and intrax in my 93 90. i love it.
not too stiff but much more than stock. we have konis
and abt's in a 98 a4 at work. it is way too low. very
agrivating to drive. a freind has a 98 with just
intrax springs and stock shocks and is nowhere near as
low as our car. i guess the mounts for the springs on
the konis are different ?? the konis are very nice,
you can adjust them where ever you want for stiffness.
but you have to take them out of the car and adjust
them.if we did it again we would go with koni
coilovers. this way you can also adjust your
ridehight. what are you doing with the car ???? if
just for street driving id go with bilstein sports and
the h+r's. h+r are the best springs on the market,they
are the least likely to fall down any lower with age.
if your doing track use and like a stiff car on the
street go with koni coilovers set at full stiff. now
what makes even a better difference is neuspeed sway
bars. we did front and rear on our car and it made a
ton of difference. want the perfect street/occasional
track car ?? go with the bilsteins, h+r's and the 2
neuspeed bars. of course, if youve got the money
upgrade to the coilovers.
my 2 cents
