RE: [T3] re 2 questions rear shocks


I use Bugpack Coilovers on the rear (IRS), they are okay but make the back
end a bit springy if your car suffers from saggy torsion bars (raises the
back end up by 1.5 inches too).

Not a clue.  I haven't had the need to investigate this.  I don't think
coil-overs are necessary on our cars since we already have springs (in the
form of torsion bars).  Maybe if the car was constantly carrying heavy loads
it could use the help (?).
