I searched couldnt find anything like this, if there is post the link and lokc this thread.

I am seriously debating some new suspension for my hatch. Its daily driven and hopefully will see some circuit racing. Currently running SRR C1 coilovers. Positives are heigh adjustable. Man u can scrap the ground or become a truck with these. Also from my experience not on the track but aggressive cornering on the street seems to hold up really nice. Negative if I it a sewer my deck skips and the mounting plate flies off. If I drive over train tracks or groves dear lord you'd think your in the end of the world.

Sparing no expence in your own opions what would be your #1 pick?

I think I'd like to try some Zeal's or JIC's

 

Zeal

/thread

 

Out of your options, Zeals... I would also look into koni/gc..

 

koni/gc rates = 400F 450R

not bad for daily.

 

the koni/GC's are a shock and spring combo right? So its not ride height adjustable is it?

I prefer to go with something adjustable so I can choose the stance

 

the koni/gc combo is a shock/threaded sleeve. you have the same level of height adjustability with that as you do coilovers, with better quality shocks/springs and overall manufacture. plus BOTH offer a lifetime warranty

 

Thanks I didnt know that, I thought they were non height adjustable.

So you think those are better then a Zeal, Tein, JIC etc... coilover?

Will those springs and shocks still be good if the car is dumped?

 

Get zeals with swift (tohatsu) springs for the winner!
or
Join the bandwagon and get gc/koni.
btw, I'm on the bandwagon.
But, I vote for Zeals because I always wanted a set but couldn't afford them. 1500 compared to gc/koni ~800.
BTW, I have all four top-hats, 450 f, 350r and an extra set of 550 for the rear. All for ~1400 (because of shipping and taxes).


If I had money and could do it all over again, I'll get the Zeal!
But, for the money, koni/gc will get you further.

I hope that I have confuse you.
Get the Zeal Zeal Zeal!!!
