sup fella's! just wanna ask yall if you guys know anyone that sells

coilover for a good price!!!

tein basics sounds good!

how do the megan racing one's do?

i use the box for daily drive only.i just don't feel low enoungh with the s-techs

and i just read a post! there were some called STD i believe where can i find that???

and i if i were to get the teins what are the recommended height settings?

iam on sportmax 002 high offset not the 0's and they are 16in. 205/50 series.

dropped on s-tech and stock struts.

thankx!

 

I would do something other the Basics. They are a nice quality coilover but don't fo low enough. Look into some K sports or Progress. K sports can be had for around 900 and you get plenty of tuning options with them. Progress are about 700 but no tuning options

 

you should check out the STD Coil Overs ive installed several sets of them and love them so much that if i wasnt on air i would be running them and they have agreat price for everything you get

Shoot Box_Rod pm he is about to become a distributer for them

Thanks

Word.

 

progress.......

 

Progress is junk. You lower the car, you change your spring rates. They make good sway bars, but their coilover setups are junk.

D2's. Lower the car, keep the spring rate. Raise the car, keep the spring rates. Individual height, damping, and spring rate is a much better way to go, and for around the same price.

D2's give you all the features of Tien SS, but at a fraction of the cost.

 

sorry dude but you have no idea^^^^ Progress coils work great as I have them for about 70,000 miles.. I looked at the d2's and were not impressed.......

 

Comparing with eyes vs. test driving set ups is two completely different things.

I've ran set ups just like Progress. Where you lower the car, by compressing the spring. Which makes for stiffer spring rates the lower you go.

When it comes to coilovers. You want to be able to adjust height, with out effecting your spring rates and pre-loads.

Lets say you decide to go auto crossing. You're running pretty low on height, and that gives you you're stiff spring rate. NOW after you're first run, you find that you're cutting into your tires from body roll. So for your next run, you lift the height of the car up 1". So now by doing so, you're stiff spring rate, has just been softened, creating more body roll, and less vehicle control. Which results in slower speeds, tire spin, wheel hop, ect.

As far as daily driving on Progress go, fine and dandy. But when you want to put them to good use on a track.... Not gonna help ya.

 

Progress.

 

PM me and I can hook you up with someone at STD to talk too. My shop just started to work with them on the east coast, but they are on the west coast so no need for you to pay for a bunch of shipping if you don't have to.

 

any rust issues with you progress coilovers, or blown struts? i have heard stories about both (on xa's and xb's) and have witnessed both first hand on my fiances tc. hers are rusted bad and has replaced at least one the struts. 2 yrs of use.

 

no rust nothing blown in about 70,000 miles

 

My progress coilovers are flawless after 40k here in no salt California.
