Strange Engineering or QA1?
 

Out of the two, which would you guys pick? I plan on doing some 12 way single adjustables w/275lb springs.

Qa1

X2

QA1 if that's the only two choices.

I have both.

QA1's in the front and Strange on the back.

I would like AFCO's but that's out of my price range. Now I need to choose between the R series and the F series

The R's are basically a 90/10 shock with stiff compression. So I can adjust the how fast the front end comes up and it wont come down too fast and cause me to blow the tires off. But the downside is that they aren't that great on the street, they would be VERY stiff regardless of the setting.

The Gen F's are are more of a 70/30 and the adjustment would affect both compression and extension equally. So they would ride better on the street, but wouldn't hold the nose of the car up as effectively.

I will say I am leaning towards the R's as of now, but I am having a hell of a time choosing.

for a straight up 90/10 shock you cant beat these in quality or price

if i was to choose between QA1 and Strange it would be Strange but like you said i also would love a set of AFCO's

Yep, I have Lakewood 90/10 on my car with QA1 single adjustables on the rear

Strange fronts & Comp Eng. rears on my Camaro. Going with a rear strange shock for the TBSS soon. BTW QA1s are made in China and Strange stuff is made in the USA.

pm shon on fastgm, he can get deals on strange

Yea, I have been back and forth with him all day.

autozone 90/10's

I tried to give you neg rep. for that comment...

I have lakewood's front and rear. Because some people can't be trusted with many adjustments.

Strange. Afco if you've got the extra green.

get whichever is cheaper qa1 or strange.

i have street monroes on front and on rear, some VERY old Comp Eng 3 way adjustables.

The fastest stock suspension car on the planet runs QA1's. Hope that helps.

I can get the Strange drag front single adjustable shock pair with 275lb springs,
spanner wrench and torrington bearings for $479 to the door.

The QA1's "r" series minus the torrington bearing kit is $489 to the door.

This is tough.
