suspension
 
Okay im sure it's been covered. but i love giving you something to type about.

I'm looking for a autoX style suspension but still streetable. I'm very lenient about how harsh it is. But i dont want to hit a bump and feel like i just fell off a cliff.

I'm looking for a upgrade from the stock springs without breaking the bank. Suggestions? Coilovers? shock/springs?

Braineack 06-30-2007 08:31 PM

budget?

I like the FM springs myself, good price.

Dow.tom 06-30-2007 08:39 PM

i'm look for under 500 for EVERYTHING heh. I know it might be hard. Also, Scott sent you an email.

go on ebay and look for a cheap adj shock w' springs for like 300 and then get a front sway. Make sure the lowering springs have decent rates, ex. flyin miata, h&r, rsr..

used bilsteins, the spring of your choice and at the very least some FCM bumpstops, the mounts if you can stretch your budget some

up your budget $200 or so and just get a FCM coil over kit with springs and bumpstops and some reasonable shocks (bilstein HDs @ minimum).

used bilstiens or konis. and then get a USED spring.

I've got about 600-700 in my setup...konis, FM springs, FCM mounts/bumpstops, larger sway and RB adjustable mounts.

Dow.tom 07-01-2007 10:03 AM

should i make my budget about 700 and get the stage 1 kit from FM (with coilovers)

Dow.tom 07-01-2007 01:06 PM

okay, looking at FM. Which is a better deal, the stage one with coilovers, or simply getting the coilover package (comes with eibach as opposed to KY)

Save your money up and get the Bilstein PSS9's

WELL worth the $$.

I didnt put too much money into mine and it seems to be pretty good, compared to the stock setup at least.

Kyb AGXs
FM springs
FM pillow mounts
FM front and rear sways

I'm waiting to see if I notice a difference now that the rollbar is in...I heard it makes the car feel alot stiffer.

what kind of shock would everyone recommend for a high spring rate?
