Hi,
I am deciding on a good setup on my tickford el xr6. I want to lower it but not to be chased around by piggers. Its' either kyb's and lovells ($980 installed) or koni's + kings ($1200 installed). What do you guys reccon?

Man no comparison for only $220.00 more, go the Koni's and Kings

EFFalcon · 11-02-2003, 03:40

whats included in those prices?

XRated · 11-02-2003, 11:39

I'd go the second option. Does anyone know if that price for $1200 is good? I wanna do the same.

SVO XR6 - what place(s) gave you those quotes?

yeah.hehe.oink!
Got quotes from wa suspensions(KYB)
Wilkinsons suspensions(Koni)
Thats shocks + Springs + a set of bushes for lower control arms + install. I dont need a camber kit coz its a xr. Already got 1.

SVO XR6. You will need a camber kit if you lower the car. The XR does not come with one, and does not have enough adjustment in it to get a propper alignment.

If your on a budget, I cant speak highly enough of KYB shocks. I also have Kings low springs all round too and as a combination, they are very good. If you do have the cash, go the Koni's. You cant go wrong with them!

Im stuck on the konis now. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$, but you get that. But i was wondering on which height king spring to get? lows or superlows? Can anyone post a pic of either?

Check my car out, it has lows in it currently (check sig). Or you check out Walkinshaws car, he has superlows.
