for daily driving I don't see any problem with the stock suspension...but i guess thats just me.

i would imagine you want something that handles well in the corners, stiffens up your ride, gives it an agressive stance, but doesn't make you need to get dental work done every month from driving to and from work. Actually, this is what I'm looking for. Sorry for hi-jacking.

 

for a daily driver, you could get by with tein s tech springs, maybe a front strut tower brace, and if any of the bushings are bad, replace those, like t/c rod area, tie rod ends, should be suitable for daily driving without being absurdly low. depending on your mileage u might want to pick up some tokico hp struts or kyb gr2s since for street use u wont need adjustability.

 

that's what I was thinking 'bout doing. Would probably need the struts since my car does have a few miles on it and i heard if you run different spring rates from factory you will kill the factory struts. My intercooler came in today, I can't wait to see that biatch! Should have it mounted for the meet.

 

I'm going to have to agree with a simple shock and spring set up.

What year is your 240? I would recommend also upgrading the struts along with the springs. Whiteline has great suspension for our cars. I think this is the website http://www.whiteline.com.au/

 

i like whitelines just the fact that they are adjustable (which im too lazy to ever do), and you have to get them from PDM and they are 175 per side now, so ur doing 350 for sway bars (even though cusco, tanabe is 400+) but for 230 you can get the ST's they are probably milder for street. sway bars are a user option, but id upgrade if your D brackets are bent (like mine were), or the bushings are going to crap.

 

im probably going to get the tein springs, and then see what i can go pricewise after that, thanks for the help, it was exactly what i was looking for
