Hey all, I'm looking at suspension upgrades (springs, and either Koni or KYB struts), but i have a convertible, and i've read that the weight distribution makes stuff like that incompatible. When shopping for the items, all i see is 240sx fastback, and i just wanted to know if the weight difference on a convertible makes a difference.

thanks

Alright guys. After 2 months of using some AGX's, i can personally say they work just fine with our cars. I'm still riding stock springs right now, though. I'm still looking for the elusive spring rate for our suspension. My only suggestion right now is to get a stiff spring rate for the rear. Prolly in the 3.5 kg/mm to 4 kg/mm range. That's just a guestimate though, so don't rush out and buy some stiff rear springs just yet (unless you really enjoy oversteer...) I'll post up the spring rates once I find them out.
