Title: suspension overhaul gtv3.0
Post by: phri on December 13, 2012, 06:19:25 PM
To get the noise out my suspension and to improve overall sharpness in steering / crashing at bumps, I am planning a suspension overhaul for my gtv3.0 and been collecting new parts, so far I planned to do ( my Christmas holiday):
Koni sport shocks, Eibach springs prokit, Wiechers strutbar
Also:
Rear: PU-bushes (all 14), rear hubs, bump stops
Front: Front Anti Roll Bar Drop Link Kit, suspension arms, CV boots, track rod ends,

I did the brakes half a year ago.

Anything else I should replace while I am at it?

Possibly the upper and lower front control arms, that is if the suspension design on the 3.0l gtv6 is essentially similar to the 156. I too have been down this road, all being that I went for bilstein b4 shocks and without the Eibach springs. Not really necessary on my sport wagon. Even with what I have done it is a huge improvement. Good luck in the improvements to your car. I am sure you will notice the benefits.
