have an 89 crx with a h22 in it. just wonder what people reccomend for suspension for this car. drive it very litle on the street and drag race it most of the time. any help would be great

 

You should get yourself some stiff *** springs if it's mostly a drag car. Just do a little searching for like "drag suspension" or something like that. I think a lot of people run like 900 or 1000 pound springs in the rear and like 400-500 pound springs in the front. Or you can get yourself a wheelie bar and you won't have to get springs as stiff.

 

my friend has a hatch that just recently went 10.57 @ 138 pushing over 600 whp and he used to run stock suspension which of course all blew out to the point where the fluid was leaking all over the struts. Now he has omnipower drag coilovers and man they made so much difference in his car and he just can't stop talking about them you could look into those. they weren't that expensive either.

 

600whp going 10.57 @ 138mph on stock springs/struts? Are you kidding? That has got to be the hardest car in the world to drive... and very scary. I guess your only going in a straight line, but still...

 

tanabe sustec pro drag coilovers 1000lb rear spring weight

 

no he went 10.74 on the blown stock suspension, but when he put in the omnipowers he started going lower. 10.57 is his best so far with new times awaiting

 

tell your friend to do a search on those omnipower drag coilovers. there have been a few people who broke the sleeves on them and i think on one persons car it caused them to crash.

 

Johnny's car was still on stock shocks this weekend, with one of them blown. lol Went 10.40 like that!! haha

 

with 2 busted legs, i have nothing better to do all day, than sit on the internet, and dream about what i cant own.... but i did find this...

has anyone ever tried these out? they look nice anyhow.

Offroad spec.

They make these for the 4Runner, Tacoma, Tundra.

I would prob. stay with a company that being on the pavement for a while.

being an off road company, their shocks most likely get alot more abuse than our honda shocks ever will.

oh yeah, he was telling us that after one of the rounds at clash of the titans. he was telling us that his struts were all leaking fluid and stuff, lol. Aaron told him that the same things happened to him, but man Johnny sure can drive that thing down the track, imagine when he gets new suspension.

 

yeah johnny has always been a really good and consitant driver. Aaron is consistant too.

 

with 250 wheel horse i ran consistent 1.6 60's with prelude skunk 2 coilovers, stock struts, and a top speed ladder bar brace on 24.5" slicks. its a 99 hatck with a b16 and a 60-1. no two-step just lauching at 7500-8000 rpm

 

omni power

hahaha..... I will never own Omni Power coilovers just because I have heard ALOT of bad things about them latley..... like the drag car that crashed and other people have been having problems due to the very thin wall thickness around the collar area's

 

i can get good prices on d2 coilovers...

 

what i've heard omni has fixed that problem. they came out with new coller's. I would also recomend the D2 suspension it has more adjustments than most coilover systems on the market. if you want to get sick with it get LAMB

 

yeah, I heard the same thing about the omni powers. like I said, my friend has them on his 10 sec. hatchback and he is very happy with them.

I also heard about a ride height adjustment problem that the omni powers were said to have for the rear, but have fixed that problem since then as well.

 

skunk2 drag launch coil overs have been around for a long time, and have gone quite fast. ground control will also make custom springs for a decent price.

 

Do most you run your coilover setups at full stiff in the rear and full soft up front?
