ok, i got the kyb agx shocks...

but for the springs...

does a 89-93 240 look absolutely slammed with the eibach sportline compared to the pro-kit??

does anybody have any pics comparing the two on a 240 sx???

Re: Suspension

no lowering springs will make your 240 look slammed. the eibach sportline gives a 1.9 inch drop up front i believe, pro kit about an inch. There will always be a fender gap unless you got coilovers.

If your dragging wouldnt you want the stock springs in the back? im under the impression that Squat = Go.

yeah, in the end, "squat=go" is what will send you off the line quicker but i'm a big fan of corners... i won't be dragging seriously till i do a major engine mod/swap so its not that big of a deal right now..

and publicenemy, that is what i call slammed. i don't really want my tires in my wheel wells (thats my preferance) so i guess the best thing to do would be to get the sportline (2.2"f/2.1"r)

and finally, the reason i said drag was cause i assumed that people look for 2 sides of performance in terms of 240s... drift or drag.. and these sides seem to be really divided... and i'd rather "drag" since i don't have the money for all the tires i'd go through drifting..

Re: Suspension

actually the opposite thalogikal, known as D2s in japan, but under American distributor they r known as K-sport, but same difference they are the same coilovers. hey midnightblues13, e-mail [email protected] if you want a set of K-sport coilovers, he just had a GB but he may be still sellin them individually. They have a great amount of adjustability (36-way dampening, 2-way height adjustment) and great price.

Yea that was way too low, I just slammed it to take some pics, I raised it 1.3 inches after that. So right now there's a small fender gap, just enough for daily drivin, still scrapin on those speed bumps but oh well.

second, will i need a camber kit if its lowered?
