Hello
I live in Seattle, have a 2000 SE 2.5 with 62M on the odometer. Front shocks are in need of replacement, too spongy, firmness gone; am considering replacing either the shocks alone with sport units, such as BAT Euros, SPAX, etc. Have decided stock SVT or SE units might also be acceptable with my stock springs, which the Dealer says are fine.
However, how do you like your BAT kit? I would like to know if you have experienced any scraping (since you are one of a very few who has the BAT kit on anything but an SVT). Also, how whould you characterize the ride? Is it supple enough to absorb the vibrations and bumps?
MY SE transmits all the road vibration, and the dash is suffering from it.
I have spoken with Chris at CTA and with BAT, and they have strongly recommended the BAT kit as opposed to installing sport shocks with stock springs.
Your experience?
Would appreciate any thoughts you might have.
Thanks
Eric
