I can't decide which springs to get on my S14! I'm going crazy!
I want them to be low (around 1.5"), but not too low (2" is too much).
Stiff but not too stiff for street (I had a Fiero - damn harsh *** ride). I want them to be at least bearable on the street, but awesome on the track.
And most definately, NOT TOO EXPENSIVE. I've found Eibach Pro-Kits for $179, and Suspension Techniques also for $179. I was going to get the Pro-Kits, but after reading some earlier posts, I'm thinking they may be not low enough and might be too soft. I've heard that the Suspension Tech springs are stiffer, therefore offering more performance, and are linear. The ST's I'm talking about lower the car 1.5". The only ST's I can find say they lower the car 1.3". Are these the same springs? They are called 'Sport Lowering Springs'.
Also, what about Intrax 'Sport Lowering Springs'? They are $212 @ Nopi and lower the car 1.75" all around.
What about Sprint 'Extreme Lowering Springs' for $191 also @ Nopi. They lower the car 1.8" all around.
Just a note: I plan on either using the stock shocks or buying cheapo-deapo ones for a couple weeks until I have saved enough money, then I will buy either KYB AGX or Tokico HP shocks/struts. Any suggestions on these?
I am in desperate need of help! Thank ya mucho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
