The shocks on the corolla are on their last legs so need ot get them sorted asap, what would be the best shocks to get and i dont really want to spend over £300, ive already got a set of apex springs waiting to be fitted, lowering it by 35mm. who else has changed their shocks to afermarket ones? and where did you get them?

My corolla is a E111 1998 1.3i 16v

I know about the koni adjustable ones available on fensport just wanted to see what else is out there :D

also does anyone know what shocks come as standerd? I have the GS model if that makes a difference.

Sorry now Link take a look at Google.com

or you could buy the original Shockaborbers from a G6R Corolla They are better than the shockabsorbers from the other E11 Corolla,s

I had TTE -35mm springs on my previous G6-R with the original G6-R shokabsorbers and it worked fantastic .

the car was like a Kart ( Skelter) that Stiff :thumbsup:

Original equipment on my Rolla were made by KYB - I assume yours would be the same. Uprated KYB shocks available from Fensport.

I've just received some KYB shocks and 30mm lowering springs today from fensport for my Corolla GXI, not fitted them yet, thats the job this weekend :D

Not sure whether im going to be able to get 17s on it with this suspension on though :eek:

Ive just ordered the koni adjustable shocks, should make a nice difference, also got apex springs to go on too, might have to wait till next week though before i can get it all fitted. Hopefully this will sort the handling problems out, just need to get it out on a track to give it a proper run :D

It will be like a go-kart mate, and you wont get bored of driving it either, iv had mine a year nearly and it still puts a smile on my face :lol:

Just needs more power now :D

was it easy enough to fit, as i think the shocks need to be used with the KYB casing and it looks as though it needs a few adjustments to fit in, plus how easy will it be to change the firmness of the ride, what was the cost to fit your kit? :help:
