940SE IRS question.. I searched

If nivomats are healthy will they keep the car lifted when parked for awhile? Or is thr gradual sag normal when parked.

I think they are on their way out but it does bring the ass up when driven a bit. I dont want to spend anymore money on the car.. But if I'm selling it i dont want to leave it "broken". I was going to lower the front as my temp fix... Probably not ideal. Won't profit much on the car if I install ipds fix kit. Making a profit is what I'm trying to accomplished.

Definitely wont buy first gen IRS again.

I think it's normal for them to sag over time if they're not being used.

If the car sits for days at a time, they will sag down.
Drive the car for 15-20 minutes, and it should pump back up.
If not, then they're expensive to replace.

Ok, that's what I figured.. the car has had some down time and it is squatting down again.

I realize the rear is expensive to replace, which is why I've developed a bit of a hate for the car.

Bought the car for the engine/trans but the body is mint. I'm thinking it's a shame to scrap such a good body! Decisions decisions.

it's easy to swap bilstein HD in the rear. and put some stiffer springs in the rear.

ipd nivo conversion kit with billy tourings or hds, have one in my IRS 760 and it rides like a dream
