Coilover conv. help (flat6)

Hello guys!

I have been searching around a little on the forums about converting the rear suspension to coilovers.

I have a 1967 Karmann Ghia, that have got IRS suspension. I need to narrow the torsionhousing and IRS a-arm to fit wider tires in the rear. Without having problems with torsionbars lenght's etc. I was thinking coilovers, so I dont need torsionbars. But here's the "problem", the engine is a Porsche 911 flatsix and the transmission is a 901 5 speed. AND I want a low car, in front I have airshocks and how about the rear when using coilovers?

Anyone know or have any ideas on what coilovers I should buy (due to the new weight and ride height, dont want to spend like $1000 on it ethier.

Thanks!!


Something like this ride height. I will probally be running atleast 17inch wheels tho.
