yeah what would be better to go with hydrolics or coilover on a 96 del sol

 

Are you serious!?!?!?

Coilovers......Ground control (if you want a manufactuer)

Hydros are too much maint and add so much weight let alone all the spare batteries you will need and what happens if you have the front up and the back down and you run out of power????

Come on man!!!

 

This is a joke, right....

 

hydrolics if you dont' want to go fast and you feel like wasting your money so your car can be MaD TIgHt Yo!

 

i cant stop laughing at this one .....

hittin switches yo........fo' shizza

 

i dont want to be hitting the switchs im talking about clearance her man say i go coilovers i got to worry about getting over things with out scraping the car if u just go a simple hydro set so i can rise the car when i need to up a down none of this two wheel or any thing just simple that what i want to know would be better.

 

Do you mean hydraulics? i would highly recommend NOT getting these. If you are serious in looking into an adjustable suspension setup, get air cylinders. Blow Jax makes a set that will work on your car. Contact GodFathers Customs, they have a website that you can find on yahoo.

Hydraulics ride like ***. If you want a hydraulic suspension that has decent ride, you will need a 2 pump 4 dump setup with accumulators. You will also have to make custom mounting brackets. After you finish with pumps and the batteries, you will have NO space left in the trunk. With an airride setup, you can get a small tank and compressor that are all in one. This will only take up about half of the space in your trunk. Plus, the ride on air is much smoother than the ride on fluid. Air compresses, fluid does not. That is where the accumulators come in. However, even with accumulators, you will get a horrible ride. Air will still ride rough, but they are now making an airride accumulator that wil give you a much better ride. However, you will have some sway in the body.

 

If you ever want to even attempt to race your car get coilovers. If you're all show get the air cylinders.

 

If you slam your car so far to the ground that it needs to raise over stuff, get coilovers, that way maybe your car will scrape in half for you being so dumb for lowering that much in the first place...

Corey - who thinks 3" drops are stupid

 

for someome special with a question like this... i go with the special answer....

get the damn hydro's .. are you from so cali? goto MIC (master image customs) get some hydro's on your car ( lifetime warranty) and then everytime you see a speed bump. lift it go over then lower it... and then if you arent in so cali but are going to MIC stop by lexani and get some 19 inch lexani rims
then make sure you goto crenshaw blvd. on a friday night and test out your new car

 

Blowjacks would be a better choice then hydrolics, you can get a simple up / down kit, but remember, that huge fu*kin compressor in the back of your car is gonna slow your *** down, but hey if you don't really care about speed, then go for it, it'd be kinda cool.

 

Hereis a tip spunkmonkey - don't excessively lower your car. If it is a decent height then you won't hit . 1-2" good - 3"+ bad.

Hydros are gay.

 

*sigh* Someday, someone here will realize just how precious a commodity shock travel is on a Honda.

 

this is a HONDA website not a low rider!!!! yeah get hydrolics and go supersonic!!!hahahaha

 

I'm sorry. I thought this was a website for all Honda cars. I did not realize that you specifically had to have a race Honda to participate.

I understand that some of you do not like his style, but why does that make you all better then him for asking a question. Grow up.

 

I think you've seen that you've stumbled across a board that isn't very "show" friendly. Honestly, I think you'll find that noone with coilovers EVER adjusts them. They buy then, set them the first time and are done.

If you're really not considering hydraulics/airbags for show, then you shouldn't be considering them... They are 100% for show. It's kinda like saying I'm gonna put two 15's in the trunk with a 1500watt amp, but I can't listen to loud music.

If you really want the huge drop, you'll learn to do what others do... avoid the large drops, and quit eating at that one particular fast food place. If you settle for a reasonable setting, you won't have to worry about it.

 

there is a place for this question on H-T, the Appearance/Cosmetic forum

 

hydro's by far. Do it. Take pics. Show us the finished product in 3 wheel motion.

 

AiR cylInd3rz 0wN j00 y0!!!!!!!!!

 

rollin in ma 9 6....with all the homies sayin....<your que to sing along>

 

Come here so I can bitch slap you.

 

I think you ment your signature to read speedsol NOT seedsol ...

 

i dont think many of can appreciate the attribute of hydr. lifts...since most of our mods. are not suit d for low speed cruising...but imgine, a wings west civic slam d 8 inchs riding a perfectly level street...

 

That is not the case at all. The only people that set them and leave them are the people who installed them for tHa DrOp y0! Anyone who has put them on for track/autocross duty will adjust them constantly until they find the perfect setup.

 

Did F&F inspired you to get one? lol
