Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has tried to change the stock suspension with a softer one... like in previous commodore royal models the suspension was softer than ss model although engine and power was same...

The stock suspension is really good but uncomfortable on the bumpy roads here...any experiences ? Thanks in advance.

I cringe at the thought, but put some FE1 springs in the car. Like from an Omega or equivalent.

You could probably pick them up for nothing off someone who has lowered their car..

:idea:
Hmmm.... softer suspension for bumpy roads- what about something like this?
It's got a chevy badge, so therefore you know automatically that it's Holden Commodore compatible ;).

I've heard if you get coilovers with adjustable shocks and back them off to the softest setting they feel softer then the stock FE2s can't confirm that though maybe if someone has them on here they can confirm that

coilovers are marketed for the performance market really..certainly wouldn't see a coilover softer than stock SS suspension that i've seen...
