Default I just ordered 90 20v springs for my 4KQ.

I ordered them from Shokan, and they insist they are in great shape.
I will let you know how I like them once they're on. I will also include before and after photos.

Default I plan to combine these with my Boge TurboGas Shocks

This is in effort against that nagging *** sag (on the car). I always thought the springs were a weak point on the type 85's.

Default As far as the shirts...

I think I'll put up a new thread for orders tomorrow. Hopefully, I will be able to generate at least 25 orders. This is the smallest amount the silk screen shop will print.

Default Yes, 20V give more lift, 10V 80/90 is the same length as 4000/CGT, just stiffer

So, they don't sag as much and therefore give a "lifted" appearance. If you use 10V 80/90 lowering springs, it only lowers the 4000/CGt a tiny bit...

Default (audi90) 20Vq Coupe Springs in the front?

Are the springs you received from a (audi 90) 20Vq Coupe?

I've been looking at something to raise the front of my 4kq, and I sourced a pair of the above springs. While the 20V springs (loose) are shorter than the 4Kq front springs, the spring wire diamater is thicker. I'm hoping that 'on the car', this still results in a bit of a lift, and stiffening.

For low budget lift in the back, throw a set of 4kq front springs on the back! Work really well.
That way, you anly have to source a set of stiffer front springs, while you move the old front springs to the back..

80/90 10v springs are taller than 4kq Springs
