Time to replace shocks on my 94 S4

[jrjajs]

Is there a tried and true shock that is a good fit to the s4?
I will drive it alot but will not track it at this point in time.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
I'm not broke but I am not filthy rich either so cost will play a role in my choice.

I am in the same boat.. i am willing to wait for the lotus stuff but not if it means I will have to spend the whole summer on my old shocks. Any ideas?

Hey Fellas,

I just went throught the same exact thing with my S4 and I was really debating on whether or not to wait for th e Lotus suspension was a tough question. The problem with the lotus suspension was that it was only adjustable by 10mm.

I just ordered springs and dampers from Gaz shocks and I was more than happy with my setup...they just arrived this week...Top notch quality. I will have them installed shortly.

Guys,

I think the Lotus suspension will be released quite soon. As far as I know it has not gone on any customer development cars yet. Lotus are trying their best to put the new stuff on my S4 before the end of March.

I would urge potential buyers just to hold off a month or so. Lotus have invested many many hours of development work and road testing on this project. The money for the project has been released by the management and it is the first tme they have developed after market product for the Esprit. If is marking failure don't expect many more projects of this type.
