Well Gents, im new. No that that is over with, first post, in this forum... I own an Ls.. bought it thinking boost originally but really i drive to much.. realistically. All motor is my new option.. i first bought h&R springs, si rims, and a cold air and called it a day so i can live with the car.. yuh know.. well i recently purchased my first mod.. the flex's.. so thats done and over with.. now i want you guyz's brakes.. which is where the topic comes into play.. from an honest not dull minded point of view.. is it possible for me with the type r brake and tein setup to obtain the handling of the type R or will LSD and like all the little stuff like struts and sway bars be necessary? Because then i ask myself is it even worth it.. i want to be able to move along to the motor quickly but it seems ill always have something in my way.. ive gotta have rims and ive gotta have a complete suspension.. basically i wanna enjoy the car to its fullest.. or..get an s2.. i mean.. this really is a dilhemma for me.. some input would be greatly appreciated... even like if its... shutup.. id enjoy a few laughs..

 

Hello.

Even if you obtained all the bolt-on R suspension components, you'd still not have the chassis stiffening and reinforcements from the factory.

That doesn't mean you can't build a fun and well-handling LS though.

Use the search function and read up.

WTF for?
I couldn't/didn't even feel like reading your little rant ... there.

 

I wouldn't worry about trying to achieve "R Status" per say with your suspension and braking needs. The reality is, people are modifying their RS's, LS's, GS's, GSR's, and even their Type R's to handle better than the stock Type R. It's all in what you want for YOU. Personally if I had the means, I would strive to make my suspension and braking better than a stock Type R. Don't get me wrong, the stock Type R handles very well, but it isn't out of the question or unachievable to make it better and improve upon. Look at Realtime, Spoon...etc. They all took their Type R's and made them better than stock for their NEEDS. Hope this makes sense

No, not particularly.
Just about anything can be improved upon with enough time, sweat and MONEY!

j/k

 

I think you should change your Title because your asking for comments/advice but you title has nothing to do with you post?

You said you have the Tein Flex right? Those are front bias(front spring rates higher than rear), and the ITR isnt, so your car definitely wont handle like an R. Your setup will understeer a lot more which to most people isnt the way to go. My advice buy some R springs with Konis and learn how to drive on stock R suspension. THen go from there.
