SHIFT_KA24DE 02-15-2005, 11:03 AM i heard teins don't drop the car too much... jus look for racing springs instead of drop springs. it'll come up w/ a quick search D-Bo 02-15-2005, 01:02 PM i take it you're looking for handling.. if you want real handling, you need more than just suspension.. and you'll NEED to lower it for serious handling.. you have to understand why lowering it helps.. think about how stable you are standing completely straight compared to when you've got your knees bent.. your centre of gravity is lower.. same idea with a car johnnyboy5 02-15-2005, 04:07 PM i got a question about that also, my cousin says that lowering a car also shortens the braking distance, i dont see how that can help on braking. What do you guys think? logik23 02-15-2005, 04:39 PM FOr the braking question, when you brake with a stock suspension, the car dives forward, that's alot of exess energy, when you have a stiffer suspension setup, the car doesn't dive as much which makes the car weigh less on hard braking, which equals to better braking distances. SHIFT_KA24DE 02-15-2005, 06:23 PM basically.. body roll = bad. unless your pushing some serious hp at drag racing. slideways... 02-16-2005, 10:15 AM but the stiffer suspension will only help braking until the limit of tire grip is reached after that it wont make any difference and i have sprint springs w/tokicos on my 89 hatch and they work well not too low of a drop but it looks nice orestes 02-16-2005, 04:02 PM you pussy drop it as far as it can go. theenlightement 02-16-2005, 08:07 PM i like eibach they are pretty stiff my cuzin has them on his 89 coupe Related Links Participate in thousands of discussions at AutomotiveForums.com!
