Default Post pics of your ride w/ list of suspension...

Post pics of your ride showing the car as a whole and the drop... and list what shocks/springs or coil-overs, and camber kit you have. Also opinions if you like or dislike and if you rub at all!

Thanks in advance

from the outside they all look the same, its all about how your suspension set up handles. You can get some $20 springs off ebay and have the same stance (look) as someone that spent $1500 for some full coilovers.

Very true and I know that, I will be getting some quality stuff but what I am looking for are civic coupes pics, I am not sure I am going with a 1.7" drop or 2" or anyway around their... I migh even go with coils.... all opinons an best handleing and ride characteristics are welcome.

mtk: can you keep traction with those tires in that size? i can't say that i am aquainted with the s14 weight specs, so pardon the ignorance. from what i understand you are more into gripping up in the mountains, and a 215 would seem a little small when you are on the throttle in a corner.

that's just my uneducated honda/miata *** speakin...i'm not really up on knowledge about heavier vehicles and big power.

Koni Sport and H&R Sport springs (will be switching to custom rate GC's in the future). My ITR rear sway should be here today.

KW Coil-overs, Suspension Techniques Sway Bars, RS Akimoto Monkey Brace, my car feels like a go-kart. I love it.


It handles the straights good...

And the turns too...

yeah.. the suspension keeps me pretty well planted and the azenis are pretty damn sticky.. i have to snap the car pretty hard to get it to slide, but if im just going through a turn normal and accelerating, it doesnt really wanna kick out.. so im happy about that..

glad to hear that...if you can get away with a smaller contact patch, then there's just that much less drag . nice car, for sure. i thought i saw something about you getting some volks...57c's, i think?
