whats a good suspension setup under $400,because after that i might as well buy tien basics.
i want a little drop,im not looking to slam the car.i was looking at tien springs and kyb shocks...also can i run tien NB springs in a NA.

 

honestly, unless you buy it used, I really don't know if its worth it...I bought my Konis, FM springs, and FCM mounts...for like...600?

By the way, we have shocks

 

Good setup for under $400 doesn't exist, unless you get a really good deal used.

Buy a set of Koni sports and use them with the stock springs for now. When $$$ become avalible get either FM springs or a GC setup. Or save up the bucks and buy a Tein solution if that's what you desire.

 

If you are looking for KYB AGXs, GR2s, or even Tokico Illuminas (maybe spring/shock combo ILK242) let me know.

 

KYB AGX + sagging OEM 1990 springs.

 

KYB's + ebay coilover FTW

 

you still have yours to get rid of don't you?

 

I got Tein S tec springs with KYB AGX shocks. If I could go back I woulda got something to lower it a lil more...but thats just me. But the shocks are good.

 

For under 400?
Look for a used MSM set up. They go fast...

 

hey can i use NB springs on NA shocks.I WAS looking at teins.and the nb have more drop.

 

I thought the NB springs made the NA ride higher? Don't quote me.

 

FWIK...To use NB springs you need the NB upper mounts and shocks with them > the suggestion for the MSM pkg...
A full NB sport pkg(like from an 01) would work as well (it is also Bilsteins)

 

hey i saw this, might want to ask him what they are: http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/n...263103892.html

 

doing that now.

 

i have illuminas with FM springs and love every minute of that driving combination. even on 2 it can be a bit rough on deep potholes but bracing helps a lot too

 

For $400 there is no decent setup. Mabye some used Konis and an alignment. You really need to start in the 600 range.

 

I paid 600 for my Konis, FM, and FCMs

250 for konis,
100 for springs
250 for FCM stuff

 

I love my agx/GC on ebay I spent:
279 for shocks and 225 for GC's... then I added chikara upper mounts for 179 or somthing and its pretty damn legit. I love it.

then I added some 450# springs for the front and moved my 375s to the rear. even better.

 

You didn't have any trouble with the spring length being different from front to rear?

 

I'd get bilstein shocks now, then when you can drop $400 score some ground controls.
