Heh... I can think of some members that are going to have a field-day with this thread.

Basically, visit splparts.com and buy all their bling. They might give you a discount if you make a big order. Get some lightweight wheels and r-compound tires. Gut your car, get lightweight body panels, and get a good alignment. Oh.. and get z32 rear uprights.

^ you got a little something on your nose, wait, no over a little bit, no, now down, yeah riiiight there.

if you want an incredible suspension, youre going to spend half of that money in coilovers alone.

i run nearly all of their suspension products, so this is speaking from experience. i switched coilovers to run theirs as well. it is really very high quality parts.

I'll vouch for the SPL parts that I have. I was shocked that I didn't bend anything after slamming into a wall at a drift event. Srong stuff. I have their tension rods, ruca's, and traction rods. I can't run toe arms b/c i have a hicas car in case you're wondering.

You know, I'm not too hip on SPL parts after they scammed me on my subframe spacer kit. I specifically asked for "no rice" and what do they hook me up with?

Boom! Hyper-rice blue subframe spacers!!! I didn't realize they had my best interests at heart until I installed them and realized that the hyper-rice blue color adds about half a g in the skidpad and ups slalom speed by 8 MPH!!!

But in all seriousness, hot suspension is only as good as the driver. Dropping 3K at a driving school and the rest on suspension sounds like a better idea.

As funny as it might be... that could be taken for the wrong intent by people.

Just FYI.

Yeah, definitely can't go wrong with SPL. I've only purchased a few little things from them ('cause I'm poor) but you can bet I'm going to buy more.

Those Topline Aragosta coilovers look amazing, but they've got the KTS coilovers that look great too. Add some Whiteline sway bars, Nismo power brace and various kick *** SPL components and you should be in business.

Anyway, two thumbs up for SPL!

BTW, don't forget some nice wide wheels and sticky tires.

Won't dirt and road kill bits eventually take care of the bling?

Nope. The blue is impervious to dirt and blood.

[s14brent]

SPL gets two thumbs up in my book!!
