nismo coil over?
nismo coil over?
Im curious about the nismo coil over for the s 13. But i cant find any information about them. Im looking for amount of height adjustment, spring rates, shock info, etc. Reviews. I have tein s tech right now with gr2. Im gona have to raise it back to stock height for the winter. but next summer i need WAY more dampening for the s techs than the gr2 offer. What im getting to is that i was two seperate sets of suspension, one for winter and one for summer. Im tired of ripping them apart all the time. I was thinking about getting agx's to go with the teins, but after i buy new hardware to complete the second set of suspension is almost as much money as the nismo coilover kit. anyway, other suggestions? thoughts?

I think Rico05 has them on his coupe. You can ask him.
Re: (cosmo)
So, for the price you could get Tein Basic coilovers that *are* height adjustable, correct?
Re: (silkk)
do the teins come with upper mounts?
Re: (race420)
ill answere my own question, i think they do come with upper mounting hardware. I was looking at the spring rates. the nismo with 296 front and 218 rear. vs. tein 336 and 336 lb in. im not sure if i like the idea of front and back sharing the same spring rate. I wanted some height adjustability, but im starting to lean back towards the agx's and teins s. are there really any advantage to a non adjustable coilover, over a strut set up?
Re: (race420)
they were designed specifically to work together while the strut/spring combo, while compatable, were never engineered specifically for a certain combination.
Re: (cosmo)
well thats kinda the point im trying to get at. how specificly engineered can a coil over kit be if the front and rear spring rates are the same. especially on a car of which most of its weight lies on the front. Also , nismo, a line of products I think i trust has set up their coil over kit with a pretty dramatic difference between their front and rear spring rates.
