S14 suspension plans, what do you think?

[tkoppab]

Alright guys i have a 95 s14 and am planning to add some new springs and struts since the ones on it right now suck really bad and maybe new sway bars. Heres my plan but i cant decide which way to stick to, would appreciate the help and suggestions.

Either

Eibach pro kit springs (thinking more of these)

or

Tein S. TEch springs

as for the struts,

KYB AGX struts

or

Tokico HP struts. as for the sway bars i have no idea.

this is my daily driver so i want it to be a pretty smooth ride overall but also want it to handle pretty good and ride nice,

oh also any other suggestions of stuff i should change while im at it?

car has aftermarket 17" rims

as far as spring / strut combos go... I've always been a fan of RSR springs on Konis. It has such a nice ride and feel, for daily and a bit of agressive driving.

My first set-up (which I really regret, and DO NOT recommend) was eibach pro-kit and tokico (the blue ones, I forgot the name) shocks. The springs felt too soft for my taste which was probably the reason why my tokicos blew after less than a year of daily driving.

damn no way, but the eibachs were good?

well... good is subjective. I hated mines, lol.

alot of people seem to like the tein s techs.

I would look into Koni Yellows also.those are popular.a friend of mine has them on Megan springs.. and he likes the setup.but he went form stock blown struts to those..

AGX's are alright.. people seem to like them also.

as far as swaybars.. Suspension Techniques makes a set front and rear for your car for right

depending on the shape of your suspenison components now.you may want to look into replacing select bushings.since they do tend to wear out.no need to replace all fo them for DD tho.

hope i helped

I am going to go with RS*R Race Springs and KYB AGX struts for my car. I found I can get the shock/spring combo for my car for about 530 shipped! I drive a 95 s14 as well.

imo, Koni's are a better match for RS*R springs, than AGX's would be.

The front tension rods are a real weak point on our cars. They have a large oil filled rubber bushing that tends to break down over time. When I installed SPL tension rods with a nismo power brace I noticed a major improvement in the tightness of the front end. Another good thing to know is that if you lower the car much you will not be able to align the back end without after market rear upper control arms and toe rods.As far as spring/struts... hate to be the guy who says it but get coil overs.
