Would sprints, and tokicos work well, or would it be too harsch. If so, what springs do you recomend.

Thanks

Sprints are great!

Go with Koni's if you can, though. The Tokico's are a little too bouncy in my opinion. I'm super happy with my Sprint springs.

I've had the sprint/tokico setup for about a month and love it. It's not hat harsh but it also feels stiff

On my 3rd gen Ihad, Eibachs and tokicos, will the ride be as stiff or stiffer.

The reason I ask is because I live in the mountains outside denver, and some of the roads really suck, and I don't want my jaw to rattle.

Thanks

I tried the Eibachs before, and switched over to Sprints for more CONTROL. Comfort-wise, stick with your original setup, or get a set of Intrax. Intrax are much softer than other others, but they don't last long either....

Supposedly the softest drop is with H&R's and I personally find them stiff so go figure; I'm happy with it though.

Love your Fittipaldi Diablos...

Wish I could say the same about the 235/40/18 Toyo FZ4s... Are you having luck with them? When I tried them, they did not work well for me.... but then... I am on 17's...

Thanks. I haven't had any problems with tehm after about 3K miles and 2 months. What problems did you have?

Hated the tires in the rain (no traction) and hated the tires on dry grounds (not enough traction for an autocross).

I have heard good things about them though; a lot of people like them. They are just not for me, that's all... =P
