To save my lower back from any more abuse from DTW roads, I'm highly considering the move back to a strut/shock and spring setup for suspension from my Megan coils.

Going with the FE5 pack - Cobalt FE5 Struts and Shock Pkg FE5-S

And YYZ v2 - Powell YYZ V2 Spring Pkg YYZ V.2

I was wondering if I needed any more parts to complete the move?

TIA,
Mark

 

Nope. Konis are even better, but if you ditched your stock setup, then you'll have to get donors.

 

Okay, sweet. So I don't need to buy anything else off this list? - http://www.crateenginedepot.com/2008...-W236C948.aspx
It was making me nervous, as I don't have any stock parts from when I swapped to coils.

This is just a DD. Koni's are overkill for me.

 

I think you may have to get the strut tops and bearings and stuff. Ask them when you call. It looks like thath is just the shocks.

 

Bleh.

Hopefully John or Tom sees this thread and can chime in. I'm at a loss.

 

chimed in on the other thread.

 

So, YYZ V.2... Is this going to be the preferred spring for track cars or is it still the original?

 

i would track v.1 but v.2 will be okay ;I like more rake for a fwd track car than v.2 provides

 

Thank you! Just gonna quote it here, so it doesn't get lost.

You gonna sell you're coilovers? How much lol i want

 

Thank you John! I owe you a beer.
I take it that I should just buy 2 of everything you listed and I'll be set.

I noticed that all the part numbers you listed are for the front, but you stated that the rear would need upper bump stop and insulators. Am I just daft and those are already listed? Note: I have nothing left over from coil conversion.

Crav3, look out for my FS thread.

 

I did not list the rear parts. I will look for those for you - two pieces per side upper which isolates and has a bump stop and lower which centers and isolates.

Rockauto.com is the best place to buy the top mounts for the struts, very cheap

 

Not up yet, as they're still on my car and I'm trying to figure this out.
Ah, okay. Thanks!
Noted, thank you.
