  • straight parts swap

    hi i have a 98 kia pride and im finding it hard to find different parts for it as im in Ireland and they arent very popular, im wondering what other car springs fit straight onto the standard shocks? and what other cars have straight swap parts??
    cheers

      you've looked for ford festivas of the same vintage? mazda 121 and 323, as well as other KIA products have interchangeable parts as well.
      Trees aren't kind to me...

      currently: 2 88Ls (Scrappy and Jersey), 88LX, 90L(Pepe), 91L, 91GL (Skippy) 93 GL Sport (the Mighty Favakk), 94 (Bruce) & 95 Aspire SEs, 97 Aspire (The Joker),
      94 Justy 4WD, 87 Fiero GT, plus 2 parts cars. That's my fleet.

        people over here have used civic coil-over setups. It basically just a trial an error thing.
