Default standard newage sti suspension? knocking rears. Soft coilovers?

Hi Guys

ive noticed ive got the knocking rear suspension on my newage, only when ive got 3 or more passengers.

just looking at the price of standard suspension, they are mega expensive.

i dont plan on changing them anytime soon, just wondering if they are any coilovers out there that are just as comfy or soft as standard suspension?

its basically a road car and comfort is the main prrority. done coilovers in the past on my classic and i hated it after a while as the ride was aweful specially as i have speed bumps everywhere local to me.

cheers.

p.s. would fitting lowering springs ruin the shocks even more?

Try talking to the guys how are supplying the BC's, maybe with the correct spring set up and setting on the shock you might be able to get what you need, keep me posted with how you get on as I could be interested as well
What year is your scoob
