Possible bad shocks...need oppinion

[kyle986driver]

Hi everyone,
I have a 2000 non s with about 70,000 miles on it. recently(last few months) ive noticed that i have a ton of noise from my shocks when i hit bumps, I know my car was perfectly quiet a year ago. Also, I autox a couple times a month and noticed that my car dives like no other boxster ive seen racing, when hard on the brakes. This has always stood out to me but i just let it go. I recently talked to a guy at the dealer and he said that it sounded like my shocks have crapped out on me. So, what do you guys think, bad shocks? ive considdered it being my rear track arms but i really doubt that it is. The noise is from front and rear shocks.

i have also been considdering getting the bilstein HD shocks and eibach springs for my car when I get the money. I KNOW these shocks will be great for what I want, I dont care about ride quality. But, the springs, i worry will give me understeer because most aftermarket manufacturers' springs tend to understeer for laibility reasons.

Ok have at it, Let me know your oppinions!

-Thanks
