i had koni yellows with ground control coilovers something like 400 front 5something rears and was able to pull 2.0's with kuhmos

but by far the best thing i did for my 60ft was to get stiff engine and tq mounts

My boy runs the Skunk2 Drag setup with 1000's in the rear in an EG. Really stiff but dangerous to oversteer and things like that on the street.

Default Re: (96 GSR-T)

i imagine if his 1000s are bad those spare SWAY-A-WAY 2000 rears must be insane, my car has eibach springs on them now, but the drag springs i have are for obviously drag purposes.

i cant imagine how those would feel with 1200s in the front and 2000s in the rear.

im also running full energy suspension bushings,comptech rear trailing arm,rear and front strut bar,6 point roll cage....all this in a FULLY gutted 91 CIVIC ef AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

also running LSD,SLICKS & TRACTION BAR so i think when the setup is all done it should be A1 insane

im also looking to make 650whp with my setup too, probably some streetable issues with something that stiff

what does the 350f/450r mean? is that the spring rate? or does that have something to do with the koni's?
