When the struts went out on my 89 RX7 turbo I put on KYB's - the ride was hard where it used to be soft, and it rolled more into the corners but was a lot cheaper - the only problem I had was on 360 in DFW at 70 mph - the rebound matched the waves in the pavement and made it feel like crap - about 1.5 up/down per second oscillations -
well I thought maybe they were just tuned wrong for the car and I got a pair of inserts for my 97 turbo - the stock ones are way to weak and the right front is leaking, and knowing that Saab puts stiffer springs but softer shocks for that luxury ride, I'm trying the cheap KYB's again (44 each through partsamerica, just a bit cheaper and more local than anyone else) -
Once I've had a week to evaluate them I'll repost if they're worth a crap!(or just worth what you pay)
