Car feeling heavy? worn shocks?

[JCell]

could worn shocks make the car feel heavier? acceleration and braking are fine, but during corners, i need to put more offort to make the car turn, and body roll is coming back (argh)


i've been riding on the stock shock with tein springs for about 10k miles with a lot of spirited driving, if i do replace them should i get HP's or illuminas, i intened to autox in the future, but i will probably be too lazy to adjust them b4 each session (smash)


r illuminas basically adjustable hp's?

Illuminas ride stiffer than HP's. The number 3 on a Illumina = HP ride.

(eek2) Damn, only 10K on a set of shocks!!! I have close to 70K on the stock Mazda shocks/springs -- no plans to replace soon...
Hell my SHO has close to 60K on them and they're 10 years old!!!

i have 23 on the odo, but i've been ridin with lowering sttifer springs for 10


i'm thinkin illuminas r a better choice, how hard r they top adjust the rear ones?

 

[FunkyBuddha]

you have to remove panels to adjust the rears and have to remove these 2 metal caps.

how long does it take?
