im thinking of getting some coilovers for my nova and i found a set that doesnt involve playing around with the rear turrets there called f.k coilovers. i have a redtop in my motor and want to know if the standard coilovers can cope with the weight at the front or does anyone know if you can replace the front springs with some higher lb-springs:tard: :tard: cheers guys, i know you lot are helpful:thumb: :thumb: lol

Don't know what the fk's come with but you want at least 275lb front springs.

you'll find fks do come with a soft spring...i used to have them...

and with rears that dont turretting you wanna be carefull as you can have prob with the seams spitting and so on...

i thought the rear on yours was great good when i help si build them...

fk's dont need turreting due to being seperate srping and shock like normal dampers :thumb:
so no need to worry with them
