hey guys iam thinking of doin this set up for my car just wanted some feed back on people who have it.Do you like it,hows the ride,hows the handling,was there any problems with the set up?.

i was goin to go with TOKICO ILLUMINA STRUTS SHOCKS with TEIN S.Tech Springs.Just let me know your feedback on this setup,so i know if it a good one to get.

thanks

 

will ur car be seeing any track/auto-x time....or u just want a nice drop

 

deff track dont know about auto x...

 

sorry i should have specified roadcourse or 1/4mile....if 1/4 mile s-techs will be fine...if roadcourse no s-techs.......i didnt like them for auto-x so i dont think tghwy will be any better on a raodcourse....but for 1/4 mile and Daily Drivign they were decent....not too h arsh but def way different thena stock as expected

 

deffinately 1/4 i dont know about roadcourse but i might also be doin that....

 

Bump............

 

Like there are soooo many curves on a 1/4 mile track..

 

that made no sense but ok...?

 

Neither does mentioning suspension set-ups when racing down the 1/4 mile...

Unless you're doing radical drag set-ups, which I know you're not.

 

i dident mention it maximase96 did,he said are you goin to be doin track or auto xing....

 

s techs are crap

 

Becuaase he knows as well as anyone, unless you'll be doing auto/x, it will be for looks.

 

ill sell u my s techs

 

iam still not getting any help here i just want to know wha a good setup is.If S tecs are crap then whats a good spring?

 

Good in what aspect?

 

nice size drop and good handleing.I would like a set up thats goin to last me and not blow on me.Thats the only answer iam tryin to get here.I need a quality set up that will last me and iam just wondering if the set up iam thinking of gettin is worth it.

your choice of adjustable shock.

 

I like the S-Techs, but I am coming from the high springrate of a coilover so they feel soft to me. I still feel like I get too much body roll.

I think they are a good street setup but I have no plans of tracking them like I did the D2s. Don't roadrace with stock brakes as they are not up to the task.

 

your damn right i know.... I HATE my S-techs for Auto-X....thats y i am sellign them....they look good ride decent but handle like my dads 66 Galaxie 500.....i brought up the 1/4 mile thing because i didnt think he knew what i meant by track meaning roadcourse......if he is strictly 1/4 mile s-techs will be fine because all he wants are looks

 

^^ FTW

 

Simple shocks and springs will help in drag racing too

Better yet an adjustable coilover setup like the D2's or K-sports where you can adjust the dampening.

 

I know, but it's clear he's not into 1/4 mile racing enough to justify the set-up. He wants it for the looks, and I did mention that in my post

 

And he did mention that he was going to drag race the car The setup he mentioned serves both his purposes.

 

so why are Htecs better then s tecs? iam lookin got good handling also i dont want body roll but iam sure anything is better then the 4x4 stock set up.

 

Less drop more travel. Softer so more lean.

I say invest in coilovers........

 

coilovers are very expensive if iam not mistaken?

 

About 300 over strut/spring combo

 

and coilovers are a big difference then the strut spring combo?I just want to do the set up and do it right and not have blown struts and this breaks and that breaks.Just want to go with a good setup.

as far as price how much would coilovers be.
i can get the setup iam talking about for about 400 450...so compare that price to coilovers for me.

 

well there a coilover setup for 800 in the GD for D2
