Default Suspension Question

I will be getting a Beak Anti-Sway Bar kit soon and a ASR Subframe Reinforcment Kit to prevent tear out and I was wondering what springs would go well w/ this setup ( I will be using Koni Yellow shocks)

I am a daily driver in the streets of NYC so the drop shouln't be too extreme.

Cliffs: Whats the best spring choice for a 99 LS ?

Thanks!

hold up mang. No need for the asr rear bar monster. Its bling for sure but overkill and you car will get stolen that faster.

I went with the suspension techniques rear swaybar kit. Included with the kit is a "beaks" "bsq" rear subframe reinforcement bracket. Really good quality. and I think it was like 230 shipped.

Your struts are fairly new (5 years and still strong) Id keep the oem struts with tein s tech springs.

Id suggest getting a street coil over. Get the drop you want.

DONT FORGET CAMBER KIT BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY ALIGNMENT. youll spend more in the long run if you dont. just found out the hard way.


Heres a shameless pic of my setup.

Were did you get them at? Does that BSQ stop subframe tearout just like the ASR brace would

Do you notice any difference in the handling?

Thanks

ya mang. rear sways are the best bang for the buck suspenion wise. Not so much strut bars. For the dc/eg chassie, there hasnt been 1 reported incident. Thats from BSQ himself. Dont sweat it. Ive take canyon run after canyon run, with the tach at the top most of the time. no sign of weakness 3 years later.

ek chassies are way more prone to tearout. Just look at the mounting points to see that.

Ebay is the best source for good name brand stuff.

Were did ya get your kit at?

But the DC chassis will not be as prone to tear out and even if it is the brackets should help it right?

I was thinking Koni Yellows w/ either Neuspeed springs or H&R springs

yes it does. thats what I got.

suspension techniques isnt some cheapo no name company. They compete in the speed channel racing series. Everything you need is in the plastic bag. bsq style kit and all. Git mine a long time ago when there wasnt as much market competition.
