id like to lower my car but curious to know how these ride ? And did anyone ever hear of pstuning?

 

Those are linked to rsr springs, are you gonna reuse your old shocks?

 

Yes I was thinking to do so is that fine or not recommended if not what is advisable?

 

I bought those but haven’t installed them yet. I know a lot of people recommend getting the oem sports edition shocks (or is the struts or are they the same thing?) to go with lowering springs. Check out this thread.

Can you even find sport shocks any more or are they long discontinued. If you're gonna spend $4xx on shocks and $3xx on springs you might as well just get a set of coilovers that's prebuilt and designed for each either rather than try to mix and match. Plus the install cost is pretty much the same if not less as you don't have to put them together. Also you get the benefit of dampening adjustment and full ride height control.

 

Also your twenty year old shocks are pretty much end of life if not dead already you might as well get new shocks. Why waste the effort/ labour to take them apart and reuse. And yes putting lowering springs on used shocks will most likely kill them faster as they have shorter travel plus harder spring rates than stock.

 

Yeah Lexus still sells oem sport struts. GOOD coilovers are gonna cost a hell lot more than a springs/struts set up

 

^^ depends what you need your car for, I doubt you're doing any sort of driving in a ls that requires high end coilovers. I'm sure on the street you are just wasting your money and probably ruining your high end coilovers on pot holes, salt, rain, snow. Also the rest of your worn 20 year old suspension sure doesn't help the high end coilovers. At the end of the day will you spend $4000 on coilovers on a $10000 car?
