for now. until i can afford some version of a v8. this setup is going to be completely different though.

KTS COILOVER JDM S14 NISSAN SILVIA 240SX 94 95 96 97: eBay Motors (item 380266305087 end time Sep-15-10 20:27:20 PDT)

 

Seems kind of a lot for a used pair.

 

People around here arent too bright when it comes to pricing used stuff.

 

i thought it was a decent price. they look like theyre in excellent condition. either way it saved me 300 bucks.

 

Buy 4.5kgmm swift springs from SPL for the rear and swap the 6kgmm to the front. You'll like them a lot more that way.

 

really? i was thinking of going stiffer. i guess i'll see how i feel once i put them on and drive the car around a little.

 

Depends on what your using the car for, but I wouldnt ever go with heavier springs. 8k/6k is already way more than enough. Get a bigger front sway bar if you need more roll stiffness. The only thing heavier springs is going to do is make it ride worse and rattle your car apart.

And this isnt pointed at you specifically, but unless the car is going to run some serious tire like DOT-R's or Slicks you dont need super stiff springs. All stiffer springs is going to do is transfer more load on the tire, and most road tires dont have enough sidewall strength to cope with it. So thats going to have some adverse affects on its handling characteristics. Its also going to make chassis flex more apparent.

 

Nowai, you not mad jdm tyte yo unless u iz runninz da 12K/10K sprinz y0
