stridertacticz Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 I know Tein's are good...but are Skunk2 Coilover kits really that great? Anyone had any problems with them? Please let me know now, before I buy a set and waste my money like I did that damn body-kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLontheDL Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 scratch skunk2 out of your head. invest in tein s tech springs/coilovers or if you want to go the cheaper route, you can do ground controls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDM Jackass2 Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 ground control springs are better than tein springs. i'll get some eibachs for my super street dampers one of these days, you watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackasssi Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 Stay away from coilover sleeves if at all possible, Ground Control's with custom Eibach springs & Koni Yellows is the only way to go for sleeves. The key for adjustable ride height is adjustment built INTO the strut not a threaded metal piece to fit between causing stress on your perches & possibly cracking a spring perch. If you have the money a true coilover set is the way to go, do it right the first time because suspension aint cheap. If true coilovers are out of the question, stick with normal lowering springs & aftermarket adjustable struts - most Koni yellows have some adjustable ride height built into the strut(25mm max adjustment) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboy2 Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 I think Coilovers are a waste of time( the threded sleeves) I think people should just go for just springs not coilovers. Springs are so easy you just drop them in and your done; but with coilovers there to damm easy to want to adjust and adjust ect!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the person who still uses their car as a daily driver during the week, and doesn't want to lose ride quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I think Coilovers are a waste of time( the threded sleeves) I think people should just go for just springs not coilovers. Springs are so easy you just drop them in and your done; but with coilovers there to damm easy to want to adjust and adjust ect!!!!!!!!! Those aren't coilovers, they're coilover sleeves. If you just drop in springs, then you have a stiffer rate than your shocks can handle so it won't ride well and it will wear out the shocks quickly. The whole point of coilovers is so you can tune in your suspension (not slam it at night and raise it at day). You go to a trackday, HPDE, etc and adjust until you get it where you want it. (Best to cornerweight first and adjust to get the weight distribution close first). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 What about the person who still uses their car as a daily driver during the week, and doesn't want to lose ride quality? thats funny because coil-over sleeves give the worst ride possible. i suppose cut of heated springs could be worse...

JDM_Hamster Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Got money to invest into your car??? Go get the Tein Ultamate Spec Circuit Master Super Racing Dampering system(EDFC compatible) they are developed from actual competition, TEIN was able to create a fully adjustable damper that can be tuned for any track or weather conditions. Super Racing dampers utilize full-legnth adjustment, EDFC compatability, and seperate compression and rebound adjustment to produce a superior suspension ready for competition... Thats what im thinking about switching to myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
