WHAT suspension set-up are you running? And how would you rate it?

[JoshM]

its what i have them set at. i'll fix it

Ohhhh.. okay!

[ExplodingCake]

KYB AGX on max settings
Neuspeed Race Springs

8/10.

AGX are not stiff enough and not soft enough. But it gives me nothing but a performance of beauty.

[Mayhem Tripp Robinson]

[illestatus]

I'm not, nor is anyone that I know of, but based on the mild drop those springs have, and having ridden in a cb7 with gr2's on much lower, stiffer springs, I would say that combo would ride very smooth, almost like stock..but wouldn't offer the best performance. I'm assuming you're not too worried about that though with those choices. If you just want a lower car that still rides smooth, I say go for it.

I am definatly not onto autoX, I just want something that is lowered in the 2" range that rides smooth

Ksport Full Sleeve
lowerd about 3 inches give or take

Great ride most people that ride in it say it rides like stock sp they get a 9.5. Performance wise i give them about a 8 no complaints from me good quality

I wanted to know if there is a setup I can use that my car can stay as low as it is now. I have eBay coilovers with stock shocks. I don't like the bouncy ride. I've had my car like this for a while (like 4 yrs). I didn't know about suspension at the time for the people who will maybe ask. I know a lot more now.

[Lanesky_EX-R]

what kinda of camber kit do you need? i got bilsteins under my bed and and progress 22mm rear swaybar on the car and i am planning to go to a race spring of like a 2" drop. so what degree do i need?

front
+1 1/4° to +3°
-3/4° to +1°

rear
-2° to +3° i assume this is fine due to the huge range of adjustability.

Thanks i cant wait to do this, next year full poly under the car and front and rear strut bars.

it depends on your budget on what will be best fit for you. I saved up about 550 and got the function and form type 1's. they are awesome, with ride height adj and stiff enough for me.

I just changed my suspension out last week. I was running ebay coilovers and blown stock struts it was mabye a 2 out of 10.

Now i am running:
Tockico Illuminas
set to 2 in front, and 3 in back
and H&R sport spring
i would rate it about a 7 out of ten mabye more later after i play with them a lil bit more anything is better than what i had

[Chirs190E16v]

Right now im running my: stock springs, OEM tires, ES Black poly bushings, Koni shocks all around set at the hardest setting, ebay strut bars front and back, new tie rods, new drive shafts, and new bearings.

The ride is kinda of bouncy but it hugs the turns really nice. I can make the tires squeal on a simple turn. But i need an alignment also. It feels like an OEM ride but more firm and controlled.

8 out of 10 this is my first before and after take on a car.

[gloryaccordy]

Tokico Illuminas (4/3 settings F/R)
440/300# springs
New OEM ball joints in front
Stock bushings
215/17s
Prelude 5 lug setup all around.

Stiff, somewhat weak low speed damping, but stability at high speeds and under braking. Car needs an alignment though, and switched lower control arms in front. I am also gonna go to 300/175# springs F/R and lower the front setting to 3. Final impressions after those changes are made.

[Shadow1]

new day bump for a good thread. any new set ups?


anyone running KYBs on coilovers? ebay or name brand?

[JoshM]

Sprint Extreme springs on Tokico HP shocks.

Pros:
Low

Cons:
Low



The springs would handle a lot better with better shocks. Tokico HPs obviously weren't designed to support a 3.5" drop. Paired with Koni Yellows or Tokico Illuminas, you'd have a damn nice ride.

Current setup = 6
Extremes + Koni Yellows = 8 (estimated)
