you do know that shocks and struts are the same thing right?? ne ways.. im guessing you want to go with coilovers so you could adjust ur height... go with GC and agxs.. or koni yellows.. i have koni yellows and their great..

or if you have money go with the tein fully adjustable suspension

what's cheap? vietboy had it right so don't try and skimp on a suspension...you'll pay for it later. If you don't have the money to get quality coilovers or strut/ sleeve coilovers wait until you do.

cheaper way = ground controls and shocks

more expensive way = coil-over kits

better way? depends on how much $500 means to you (price difference between the 2) but i've decided to save up for some tein HA's. bottom line is that ride quality is superior with a mated shock/spring coilover setup.

iono though sometimes i think paying 1100 for coilovers is a financial burden i'm not willing to bear, but oh well. my car get what my car wants.

I was wondering the same for my 96 Lude. About how much do the GC's with shocks all together cost?? and does anyone know any sites where i can get these pretty cheap? Or is this the only site that sells them http://www.ground-control.com ? And if i get the GC's ill need adjustable shocks right?? So whats the best bang for the buck, all around adjustable suspension for my 96 lude??
