I've got intrax springs w/agx's,it's a little rough even dialed soft but soooo much better that stock, probably killin the stock bushings with 180,000 miles on them, now it's time for poly bushings and sway bars. Dialed stiff they make for some easy sideways action and bumpy P-town roads.

how about KONI on stock springs?
I have the Koni Yellows on stock springs. I bought the car that way. I'm not impressed. I'm looking into upgrading now. Dending on the verdict of a check-up I'm having done at Tri-Point, I may go with coilovers(JIC, Tein, $Aragosta$) because the springs and shocks were designed to go together. At the very least I'll throw on some springs(RB or Eibach) and a new front and rear upper bar and new front sway.

I have koni yellows and eibach springs. Its an awsome combo I think, the car handles awsome, of course ride suffers but thats how I like it. They are fully adjustable and the softest setting is just about like stock.

I had tokicos....I am not sure if I liked them since I had never felt the stock ones. ONly complaint is that they are very firm on daily drives. You can feel every pebble on the road. I got used to it after a while though.. :bigthumg:
