Default Improving the A6Q's handling...

With all the various options of changing the shock, springs, sway bars, wheels and tires, has anyone changed the handling characteristics of the A6Q to one of better function? Although I own a modified NSX I find the A6 difficult to throw around in corners, perhaps due to the weight as well as the height factor.What would be the best place to go first. Bear in mind this is a 39 mon leased car,I hate to change too many parts. <br>

Default Dennis...I still haven't been able to find anyone that has done anything...

You might want to call CEC in Beverly Hills. They may have installed an A!Avantgarde kit on an A6. I will keep looking...there has to be something somewhere. You know in Germany someone has something to help.<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM

Hi Steve, <br> <br> I remember someone used the AvantGuarde springs (only) .Can't remember what he said though. I considered just the sway bars but I'd like to get first hand info from anyone on the A6Q.I don't want to have a "truck" after doing springs. I remember changing the springs on my Supra. The car was harder riding than my 4X4.<br>

Default If anyone does any mods...

please post results. I'd love to tweak mine to improve the handling--too much lean and dipping in the corners.<p>Bruce W 98A6<br>
