Besides Ground Controls, what's the most agressive springs available for my 1997 if I want to run road courses? So far, I know Eibachs work well only when pushed hard. I hear H&R rides slightly harsher than stock, but nobody commented on performance driving (like road course tracks). Maxspeed rides like stock, which's useless. Intrax are identical to Eibachs.

?¿ºsprintsº¿?

 

Sprints are too low for racing. I would recommend Eibachs. They are just as stiff as the Sprints, but they aren't as low. You need wheel travel when racing.

 

If you get a stiff enough spring you don't have to worry about bottoming out because you cant ever load the suspension that much anyways.

 

Gotta say Sprints, even though they're low.

 

does eibachs offer custom springrates like they do for GC?
I think a combo of ride height and springrate is important. Assuming my tires hold, I'm gonna load those springs as much as I can while turning!
Thx for the suggestions. If anybody else wants to comment, please do! In the mean time, I'm gonna look for members with Sprints (anybody know off hand?)

I have Sprints

 

For road coursed with extremely tight turns take the Eibachs. But I have Sprints and I can tell you they handle great on the street. Just that on road course, mzmtg is right in saying there isn't enough travel.

B&G's are quite feisty.

 

a linear spring? All of these,i believe, are progressive... for true autoxing you will want linear... I was just curious, any experts want to comment? i guess i could search...

 

I have APEX springs which is like B&G 1.6" drop but I heard they are slightly stiffer.

 

I thought only intrax and eibachs had progressive rear springs? All companies have linear front springs...right...?

The H&Rs for the Maxima are linear in the front and progressive in the rear. You tell if a spring in progressive if it has tighter wound coils towards the top of the spring. My Intrax were progressive in the front and rear.
