i never really frequent this portion of the site, but im in need some opinions on lowering the S. what kind of suspension/springs would you recommend? this will be for a daily driver with no track time. any advice or inputs would greatly be appreciated it.

 

if you're not going to track it.. just pick up a street setup.... tein cs, tein flex, ground controls with koni yellows, comptech adjustables with koni yellows, or just springs.. esphiler, tein s tech, hks, list goes on an on... with koni yellows...

thanks papa5murf. ive always used coilovers such as teins and jic but i think im just going to go with a basic spring setup. thanks again.

 

just make sure you run an aftermarket shock. I have seen too many people lower there S just on springs and a year later bitch and whine about how there car rides like ****. I told them to get shocks, but decided to skimp out on it. tsk tsk.

 

ok i finally took delivery of my 06 s2k and i to lower it. what springs do you guys recommend?

thanks.

 

how much of a drop do you want?

 

1.5-2in...

 

i would get some Espeliers and call it a day...

Coilovers are the better option, but it seems like you want to just to get it over with the easy way...

oh i know what you mean...coilovers are really a PITA. im young and have alot of time, so i don't mind adjusting them.

i would get springs, but i would want to upgrade the stock struts. i just figure for a little more cash you could have a nice set of coils...

 

it's hard to get 2 inches on springs..

espilers: 1.25-1.5
neuspeed: 1.5-1.75
skunk2: i think its like 1.75-2...(but i would pass)

most of the others are just 1 inch drops....

either way.. make sure you get some koni yellows with whatever you end up getting..

 

cool! you got an S! did you sell the DC2 yet?

does eibach make sport lines for the s2000? they have a 2'' drop on most cars i believe.

 

^ don't think so... they only have the ones with the 1 inch drop for the S... that or the ground controls..

 

^

honestly if i had to get springs i would do espeiler or even spoon.

PS: i just got off the phone with a certain company. I ordered a new part, check my s2ki sig out

 

^ i'm gonna take a guess before i check it.... j's 60rs?

***EDIT***

holy crap.. you went all out...

 

OK my advan is for sale shoot me with an offer bitches dont low ball me

 

for the op, i haven't heard much about them but the spoon non adj dampers with their progressive springs sound like a nice fit for you.
