View Full Version : Suspension on 94 UK car chrisnobbs 19 October 2000, 17:41 Would 1998MY Shocks and Springs fit on a 1994 UK car? andyp 19 October 2000, 18:44 No problems, but a couple of points worth considering:- 1) If you're upgrading, make sure you fit an uprated rear anti-roll bar, since <MY97 ones are quite a bit more flexible. It substantially reduces the body roll. 2) MY98 suspension is better (stiffer) than MY94, but most people seem to think that MY99 and onwards is even better still. But if you can get it cheap it's probably worth going for. 3)If you fit the new suspension (and AR bar) make sure you have the geometry checked. You might want to get 'Prodrive' geometry settings dialled in, or even better still, get Powerstation to do the bumpsteer removal mod. Hope this helps, AndyP stratman 22 October 2000, 09:35 I have just had MY99 dampers plus Eibach springs (with Prodrive geometry settings) fitted to my MY96 UK, and it has made a huge improvement, but there again my original set-up must have been a bit tired having done 78000 hard miles. I had already upgraded the front and rear anti roll bars which most probably has contributed as well. But everying fitted ok. TN did a good job.
