suspension

[tru240sxracer]

Ok now my question is what do you all think is a good suspension for daily driving with occasional racing?

[sbird1]

Common starting setup to go with would be KYB AGX shocks and struts. Good for road and track!

[le_ryan]

KYB AGX/ tein sus tech, i loved it, but i think a set of basic coilovers would be a better investment

[S14toRPS13]

Get a lower priced set of coilovers like Megans or K Sport.

hey S14toRPS13, what do you got on yours ?

[tru240sxracer]

kk i was looking at the tein basic

[Afliction523]

Im not trying to thread jack, but what rims are those and the offset, they look tits

I got Stance, but I know some people don't want to spend an extra hundred or two for them. I don't know anyone with Megans or K Sport so I can't comment too much on them but from what I hear.

are you asking me or someone else?

The Tein Basic coils don't have damping adjustability... Go with the Megan coils

for something in that price range.

[Afliction523]

It was to RPS13, I thought the top saying Re:"username here" Would show who it was for, my bad. I figured out they were rotas....its in the sig lol

[NSRsheets]

Tein coil-overs would be good. Some sways or strut tower braces would also help.

[Ohio_S13]

You should replace your tension rods also. Most S13s really need them replaced anyway. You will get a better steering feel.

megans > tein basics anydaymegans = 32 way dampeningtein basics = 0 way dampeningmegans = camber platestein basics = camber plates sold separatelymegans = $700-800tein basics = $900megans = 12/10 track; 8/6 streettein basics = 6/6 standard

or you could be a real man and get some moton triple-adjustable coilsovers.... thats just me though.

[tru240sxracer]

I've already gotten strut rods on the way in

[whiterps13]

You mean Tie Rods, right?

Im pretty much the only guy on the forums running Tein Basics. I got them for -cheap- so I can justify the lack of adjustability, but if I was going to spend $900 I would go with something else.

Megans or step it up a notch and get some K-Sports.

[nismofly]

step it up a notch and go from 0 to -1 on a scale of 1-10? lol

[adrianfromthecastle]

hks hypermax II's ftw... imo, the best for streets and occasional tracks

[tru240sxracer]

I typed the wrong thing, I got some strut bars. I just need to completely over hall the wholes suspension on this car. The last owner didn't really take care of it.

[tru240sxracer]

Also i'm looking for a 12:1 rack and pinion for the car to eliminate some of this understeer

[AmoebAssassin]

A quicker rack won't remedy understeer, sry.
