Poll: Springs

[180fan]

Koni's are well worth the money. They're guaranteed to outlive your car. Strip the yellow, paint them silver, put a nismo sticker on them and you'll also have genuine nismo shocks. Just FYI.

hey 574-240sx, you wouldnt happen to still have the electric fan(s) from your recked 240? im looking for some electric fans for my car. sorry bout the thread jack but ive been meaning to ask him

[240SXedUp]

I just bought the sportlines. I decided to go with those to see how they feel. Ill probably post another poll in the next week to talk about shocks. I have 3 in mind tho. Yellows are too much

Accually I'm going to use them in my next 240 project. The off center front impact was pretty bad, they are probably trashed. sorry for jacking your thread. Nick

I can't remember exactly which company it is, but I remember hearing something about if your springs droop, compress, sag, whatver, a certain amount, they'll replace them. I may be all wrong, and usually am, but I'm pretty sure this time.

[book-ends]

Yes!! I have to check the latest SCC mag because I believe there is an add for the springs in there.

[tex240]

that is what tein says in there ad

[F4ucc]

Well, NON OF ABOVE !!

All of them are prograssive spring rates and too soft.

Try to find KG/MM S21 they are rated at 6.6 and 5.2 kg/mm and linear rate too.

later

Im with F4ucc, Kgmm dr racing springs (the gold ones). i love em to death and the drop is approximatel 2.2 in the front and 1.2 in the rear.

[240SXedUp]

2.2 front 1.2 rear? How does that look?

[TurboKA37]

my whitelines claim 1.75" drop f/r and i can tell there is more wheel gap up front but im not sure if its a inch worth

[Jookmasta]

well those numbers i posted are approximate and true. i measured the car b/f and then measured it after and did the subtraction. pics are in another thread i just posted. look in the suspension area and you'll see something about kgmm springs and the myth......

[TurboKA37]

hey jook, how high was your car before you dropped it? i want to see aprox. how much the whitelines dropped. i kno there will be a slight difference but i can get a good idea

[Jookmasta]

15.5 in the front and 14.7 in the rear. measured from the bottom of the fender to the center of the rim.

[TurboKA37]

thanks

[Jookmasta]

np, lemme know how it goes

[TurboKA37]

assuming my car had a similar height stock, the whitelines lowered it about 1.5" front and rear

[Jookmasta]

cool, what size rims are u running?

[TurboKA37]

right now the stocks are on for the winter but i have 17x8 5zigen FN01R-C with some nice rubber for the good weather

[Structure240sx]

springs for s13's usually lower more than s14's. i believe that sportlines on s13's drop 2.2" while on s14's its 1.7"

[Jookmasta]

ur must sit nice with them rims on.

[Structure240sx]

it did for about 500mi til i took them out for stupid reasons
