Suspension Question
I have a question reguarding suspension. Ok, so I have a 1996 corvette with the stock suspension and want to upgrade to the suspension with ride control. Basically the switch that allows you to choose between touring, sport track and so forth. My question is can you still buy either that upgrade option from the factory or something similar. Any help you can give would be appreciated.

Re: Suspension Question (LT1CORVETTE)
The FX3 Selective Ride Control was intergrated into the car's electronics and computer systems and would be a real pain to retro-install. RPO FX3 cost around $1700 as a factory (only) option and now, even the parts would cost you about twice that without even going into updating the electronics and wiring.
There are a number of adjustable shocks available such as QA1, Koni, or Penkse's. Another option to consider is a coil-over suspension conversion.
