      So basically, if I can handle the added vibration and noise from an IE/koni suspension I should be fine.

      As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
      You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

        not necessarily, since its a different kind of vibration. Harder motor/tranny mounts vibrate at idle, unlike suspension, which only is noticable at speed.

          right, but what I meant was that its not going to be much harsher than it already is.

            I'm runing IE's motor and trany mounts too, not really that bad specially if you get a new drive shaft center bearing.

            biggest improvement is that 3rd gear dos not pop out during hard turns.
            then again the Syncros was going bad., but really. they do make a huge difference, engine/trani feels tight and there's non of that sling reaction on hard take offs.

              And what I meant is that they are two distinct types of harshness that are pretty much independent. So yes, it can be harsher than it already is.
