I know that the fourth gen birds have better technology in there suspensions, but man they ride like f*#@ing cadilacs compared to the third gens with WS6. I am wondering how I can get mine to ride like that, or at least partically. What do you guys recommend in the way of shocks, struts, bushings, sway bars, etc. My car handles great, but my kidneys are starting to hurt!! Any help would be appreciated, thanx!

It's just the price you have to pay for performance. You could soften the ride but you'll sacrifice handling. It all depends on which is more important to you.

 

I've got the same problem (see "Call for help on spring replacement"). I'm convinced that the WS6 high spring rate is contributing to the stiff ride. The WS6 front spring is reported to be 548lb. I believe this to be about 200lb. higher than a non-WS6 spring. I have not had any luck getting a response from someone who has actually swapped out their WS6 springs for a softer (lower) rate or anyone to confirm what the non-WS6 spring identification is. I'll be watching to see the replies to your post. Good luck.
