Subject: alter shock abs ?


Being Swedish, I was bold enough to bring my SAAB 9-3 to Germany (!!! Why drive German when u can Fly Swedish????). The driving in Germany is very different than back home (although most "free-speed" highways are a memory many live/drive with that attitude) hence I must admit a short coming of my dear SAAB. The 200 Ps engine is very well suited for the German roads, however I would like all possible input in what I could do to achieve a less "wobbly" feeling in speeds above 150 Km/H in thighter the highway bends. I've been driving some Beemers in the same fashion, and they feel "stiffer" (it now becomes very clear that I'm not very aquainted to car language in English, nor German (generator is translated to Light maschine, though)), they seem to kneel less in high speed turns. Is it just to change the standard SAAB shocks to more high speed suited ones ? What would that cost me(500 or 5000 USD/EUR) ? Is there a recommendation to how hard they should be (I assume there is a measurment to describe this) ? Is there any thing else that I should take into consideration (except going slower) ? all ideas/comments are welcome and educational -- Krister Norrman Pullach i. Isartal Germany
