FE2 Suspension in a Wagon.

[mattathm]

Hey all... I have a 05 VZ wagon, Id like FE2, or something similar to make it handle a little better..
I don't want to go too low so as to cause problems on driveways etc etc.

Our police wagons in NZ come out with FE2 and a LSD, but I cant find any....

Any thoughts?
How about compatibility? VE the same?
any help would be good. Cheers.

Yerp I have the stock fe2 on my wagon. You can feel the bumps, ride height is ok, wouldn't mind the rear a bit lower just to kinda level the whole car out. I think the front is same set up as sedan so that shouldn't be hard to source, rear might be tougher. Wagon/ute would be what you're looking for and in the vt-vz range only I'd say.

I'm the same, I think the rear could come down a little.. The front is fine but the rear not so much

Sold. Cheers Impulsive.

What's the difference between stock?... Just springs and shocks? Or control arms as well?

 

[mattathm]

The fronts are the same but the springs are slightly lower but grunter, the rears are shorter, and will possible need shorted rear shocks, but Ill see when the time comes to do the rear. Ive been slack. I got the springs from impulsive and they been sitting in my garage floor ever since. LOL

Finally managed to fit the springs I brought from Implusive.
Even tho his were from a SV6 sedan they bolted straight in on my wagon.
the front was about 15mm lower the rear about 20mm
definately a stiffer ride, but now seeing as the shocks are 200000kms old they are a little worn. so prolly need replacing to finish the job.
all in all an easy job to do and just got a wheel alignment after.
The digital machine at mag and turbo in NZ had wagon, with FE2 specs in it....

cheers..
