QA1 Suspension
Has anyone installed the QA1 front and rear suspension systems? Their level 2 or 3 setups.
Not cheap but I've got the $ to do it and i'm wondering are the benefits worth 4 grand?
Thanks to all for your input.

Re: QA1 Suspension
I'm not completely sure what these kits are, but I would say no.
Happen to have a link? If its all coilovers i would avoid it since they are more of a fancy buzz word and not really practical on these cars, especially on the front.
Re: QA1 Suspension
I haven't heard much good about the QA1 shocks and struts. Lots of people reporting failures after less than 1000 miles. For $4k you can do a lot of suspension work. But the right suspension parts depend on what you intend to do with the car.
Re: QA1 Suspension
We have quite a few sets out of the viking front and rear with great results on the street and track. Depending on the application there are some valve specific options.
For clearance issues with the front you will have to run short end links if you plan to run a front sway bar.

Re: QA1 Suspension
UMI Sales left out an option too. The Monotube rear coilover units work really well for performance driving. http://umiperformance.com/catalog/in...oducts_id=1005
Matching fronts should be in the catalog soon.

The viking line is closer to apples to apples with QA1.
The link you shared is more of a apples to oranges comparison regarding the two products.
