Im debating on getting coilovers but i don't know exactly which brand to get. Im thinking of tada or spoon? Anyone one got a take on either two. Or any other opinions on different brands? All i know toda costs $3600.

 

ohlins

 

TEIN AND ZEAL ARE ALSO GOOD WAYS TO GO, STAY AWAY FROM TODA WAY TO PRICEY, SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS I NEED THEM ON AT WORK

 

sorry man ohlins are at another level than your JDM boy racer coilovers

 

I agree, if your going to spend like $3000+ might aswell get Ohlins.

 

btw, how much do the tadas cost?

 

What are you using the coilovers for? If you just want to be able to lower your car and tell your friends that you have coilovers, buy coilover collars from Ground Control for a couple of hundred bucks. If minimizing lap times is the goal and you have the setup wherewithal to properly use an adjustable shock, find the money to buy high-end units like Motons, Penskes, or the aforementioned Ohlins.

Steve, great advice. But is it considered polite to imply the guy might be a poseur?

 

auto-x nerds live in a diff reality which determines that unless you spend a good portion of your seat time cone dodging, you posin'

 

:D

Different reality? You should see what track guys and real racers think :p


Which means Jerry, RT, and Tedster are the only ones here who aren't poseurs and turn quick lap times.

But then again the Bauer's could scoff at the "track guys" since they do "real" competitive racing.

I think the levels of posin' are quite well illustrated in Mr. Hayahi's famous "Pyramid of Speed"

I guess if you drive a nice sports car like the S, buy nice "racing" parts for it, crunch it street racing, or cant turn quick times, then I guess its posin' :p
