many people on this forum have been looking for the right answers about which coilovers should they get, whether is for drifting or road racing,etc. i would appreciate if people from this forum that own or have owned coilovers give us some feedback about their coilovers like brand, stiffness/softness, did u drift with them or road raced, price, and for how long have u had them? are the coilovers worth the money? (try to answer to this questions please)no offense but, i dont want people that have not owned coilovers in their cars to post in this thread because their feedback would not as helpful as from a person who owns an s13,14,15 with coilovers. myself and other people want the best feedback possible.

thanks you.

go to meets and track days and ride in other peoples cars, noone can tell you what coilover you are going to like best, its a preference thing. it all depends on your driving style.(and dont reply w/ your driving style and asking for which coil for it, i will e-slap you). these treads arent too far off from ka vs sr threads. there are thousands of threads like this search and check em out irl. hope that helped.

there really isnt a "drift" or "road race" specific coilover. its how you setup the coilovers for whatever you want to do. alot of people run silk roads and stance coils. im personally running hte stances and love them. i have yet to hear 1 bad thing about stance coilovers.

I run Cusco Zero2 in my 95 s14 and just love the ride they give . softest setting I would say close to stock and stiffest setting just waht it means stiff. the car is daily driven with spirited freeway runs . The coilovers cost $2150 alone,but I have a rolling Cusco catalogue.
