Hey guys, I just ordered a FSTB + RSB from CustomMaxima and now I am looking for the drop. I hear nothing but great responses from you guys with Tokico illumina struts so I know I am going to go with those but, how about springs? I know about H-tech, H&R, Progress and others but, what works best with the illuminas without blowing a strut over time?

Do you guys know of a place online to order the tokico struts and some springs for a good price? If so, can you name a few cheap spots, I am trying to order today if possible if the price is looking right.

 

Tokico Illuminas with H&Rs you're set for life homie!

 

I've been using Illuminas with H-Techs for about 8-9 months without a problem.

I actually ordered my Illuminas off of eBay (was the best price anywhere at the time) and bought my H-Techs from Southwestautoworks/Sportcompactonly.com

Can't recommend SWA/SCO enough though. And don't go by the prices listed on their website. If you want to order, call them, tell them you're a NICO or Max.org member and you should get a nice discount. I got springs shipped to me at a better price than anyone else in under 2 days.

 

im still considering doing this combo, but the i30 rides really smooth now and i wouldnt want to mess it up

 

Sorry man, I was a big fan of the stock ride but, now with my performance mods my car's handling does not match the performance at all. Actually my car is down right scary at high speeds when doing fast lane changes or manevuers (I hate it). My fiance had the nerve the other night to tell me that my car handles like crap and she would rather drive her car (g35 sedan)at high speeds and my car handles like a boat. That was embarrasing and my car is faster than hers. Anyway, I ordered the Tein H-tech springs...thanks metaorbit. I am still looking for a good price for the struts now. I will update you guys on a good deal if i can find one. Can't wait to drop my IX4 and have the car sitting right with some nice wheels.

 

Thanks meta, again for the help. You keep helping me mod and I am going to have to put you on my payroll.

 

Illuminas and H&Rs here.

 

Not a problem. As for the payroll...I'll PM you with a Paypal address later...


Haha...j/k.
