I just got my 91 240 and the suspension is shot. I need to get a little cheap but reliable and tough setup for now while i am saving up for a top dollar one. Any help will be appreciated.

my best suggestion is to go all out once and just get it over with. the "temporary" cheap setup will just be a waste of $ and time in the long run. i went with the tein super drifts and i absolutely love them. i have a few friends running the stance setup. they feel the same for those as i do me teins. drive ur stock setup, as beat as it is and get a feel for the car and your driving style. then do some research and see what setup will work the best for how you drive your car.

like what was said earlier. SAVE UP and DONT CHEAP OUT. Buy a descent set of coils, I heard enduratech coils are alright and aren't super expensive (under a grand). I'm personally running Stange GR+ Pro's and love em

no they are not, nothing that you said can be taken seriously, you misspelt CHARACTERISTICS, you know we have a spell check function......

OP what are you gonna be doing with the car.....is it gonna be a dd and occasional track car, or a full blown track car (judging by your lack of knowledge, no offense, im assuming that it isnt gonna be a dedicated track car)
