Shock combo anyone?
Ok I've decided I want to buy the Espelir active GT springs for my car.
Mainly because I want it to perform really well at the track and it has an excellent stiffnesss transfer to the rear. Just to make sure LoL, stiffness transfer to the rear is also relative to weight being transfered to the rear?
I'd like to know what shocks somebody can recommend to go with these springs? Keep in mind I'm looking for more of a DRAG setup. so which shocks would help with weight being transfered to rear and acting fast on the track? Thanks for anyones input!

I wouldn't describe a progressive spring with wide rate spreads as something that will perform "really well" at the track. Though I'd be the last person whom it would be lost on that the aftermarket doesn't give us linear springs with real increases in stiffness vs oem, except for Nismo T2 springs.
I used to include percentage of roll stiffness transfer specs with my aftermaket spring and coilover charts. I no longer do this, since this platform defies tuning logic in where improments are yielded as to which end of the car you throw added roll stiffness. The same books on tuning tell us what to do to get changes in behavior, yet they also tell us to test and verify said change and to be willing to do other things. I got better results with 560/427 then 358/427. The higher rear biased setup may be a hoot to fling around, but it was not the quickest way A to B.
