Progress.... - Focaljet

**SweetZX3** · 02-23-2001, 04:26 PM

I am going to go ahead and order these springs tonight, how long are my stock shocks going to last. I already have 17" wheels on my ZX3 already.

Thanks, Scott

They may last at most a year which will give you time to save for a set of konis. My factory struts are pumping all of the fluid out a little at a time.

My Progress with stock shocks with Eibach sway bars are the BEST! [img]graemlins/thumbup.gif[/img]
I give it thumbs up all the way. The best little autocross car. Drives just like a RWD Focus. I even won my class last year with just those two mods. [img]graemlins/thumbup.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbup.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbup.gif[/img]

I have the progress springs with stock shox. The ride is ok but a little bouncy and now just installed my eibach shox. WOW what a difference. I wish i would have done both at the same time to save time.
