>From what I understand Neuspeed makes their shocks after the 95 stock shock
which has a 10 mm higher spring perch then the 96+ stock shock so in order to
lower the car enough on the later models they make the spring smaller then
the other manufacturers to make up for the the higher spring perch.  Thats
why when my buddy put Neuspeed race springs with regular Bilsteins sports
(not from Neuspeed) his car was rubbing in the front!!!! so he had to raise
it up some. I am running NS race springs with NS Bilsteins and my car is not
as low as his..
