Default Add adjustable sleeves to coilovers?

I have a set of NuSpeed Race springs on Tokico shocks. I like the ride, because it is primarily for Auto-X, however it is WAYY too low.

Question:
Can i buy these cheap adjustable coilovers, and use the adjustable sleeves with my NuSpeed springs? Essentially making my NuSpeeds into adjustable coilovers...

Thanks,
Fred

No. You would use the springs that came with the sleeves.

no. if I remember correctly the Neuspeed springs do not have a flat bottom to rest properly on the adjustable perches.

If you like the springs you have now you could probably get the Koni yellow struts with the perch cups. Then you could adjust the desired height.

All that the OP really needs are spring spacers. Cheapest way to raise the car, keeps the existing spring rates, no adjustments to screw up.
