eddygordouk Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 does anyone know what suspension set up the 89 RX has and is there any aftermarket coilover/struts for it? I know the xt has KYB and there are a few other old subarus supported by tokico. Is there anything for the RX? Or is the RX running any suspension set up of another car?

nkx Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 hopefully will can chime in on this one, hes the suspension master. iirc, you can put kyb gr2s in the front. rears are gonna be oem unless you concoct your own custom set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would want some decent suspension to greatly reduce body roll to brring ouut the light weight of the RX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 KYB's are offered for the RX. The original sring rates were slightly higher than the average GL. Body roll isn't controlled so much with the shock/struts as a larger sway bar. I believe the RX had either an 18 or 19mm bar. The XT6 has a 20mm rear bar. That with new bushings will reduce some of the roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to work on body roll and stiffness to reduce roll and maximize cornering, since this car wasnt made for speed to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
