Anyone know what the stock shock and spring setup is on 94 GTS?
Also how long till these need replacement? Not planning to track the car.

The stock shocks are Boges either standard grey/light blue colour or sport shock red in colour both front and rear.

Springs are standard with NO sport option............brown stripe fronts and blue striped rears.

My shocks were absolutely bagged after 140k kms and 17 years.

Malcom,

Thanks for the reply.
Since I... well erm Mike is going to be under the car for a day or so tinkering I decided to do the following. (GTS has 97k):

-New Boge Gas shocks
-Keep springs till next upgrade
-add Poly Control Arm
-add Poly Sway Bar bushings
-add adjustable drop links

I still want the nice compromise between the S-4/ GT ride while gaining some added improvemnet in cornering and stability. Comments welcome...

If you're taking the time to do shocks, get Bilsteins. The harsh ride some talk about is really just from the stiffer springs. The Bilsteins are rebuildable too.

Chris.............the stock springs on your car are standard on the S4 models and all GTS's................not sure if the GT's were all fitted with the 'sport' springs but these springs are optional for all '87 ~ '91 cars.

Now that I've had my Eibachs and Bisteins on my car for a little while I'm wondering what the car would be like with the stock springs and new shocks..........too much work just now though to go back.
