suitability of aw11 shock inserts into ae92/ae86

Postby crispy'86 » Tue Aug 02, 2005 10:08 pm

Anyone tried these?? They look a bit shorter in cartridge so would it be a good idea/bad idea to try these in either my ae86 or ae92??? and springs in ae92 too??

It can be done using the inserts and a bit of modifying. Anyone done this??

garagedori.com for shock guide. Use AW11 rears, and space up 40mm in strut.

i run aw11 kyb super circuit's in the front of my carina struts (same dimensions as ae86 struts).
