Ive delt with alot of coilover suspensions. (Wrx,Integra Type R, Tsx) but i dont know if i want to go with a full coilover suspension for my s2000. ive got a full gt1 amuse wide body kit, with 18x9.5 wheels with 245/40/18 tires.

Should i go with a full coilover suspension?

or

Just a tanabe or tein spring with stock shocks.

to be honest i want to go with just springs. but will it sit at the right height with what i have?

anyone with this kit, or exp. let me know! HELP!

thanks

 

depending on how high you want your car coilovers are the best choice. If your car is too high/low you can change it with springs. If you bought the amuse kit, might as well fork out the dough to get a suspension. Thats what I did.

 

Also tein springs give you about a 1inch drop which will sit kinda high IMO.

 

Definitely coilovers. With that kind of setup, you'll need to do some adjusting I'm sure.

 

thats what i figure. i just kinda like how the skunk 2 springs sit and ride. i will stick with coilovers....unless somehow with an amuse kit has just springs.....anyone?!

 

I had skunk2s too. It did ride great at first.but then the shoks went out and it rode like shit. those might be ok for height.

 

i have a 1" drop and it's damn perfect. sure it could drop another 1/4" in the back and maybe another 1/8" in the front but damn it's pretty darn close. now $200 versus a $1000, is that worth a 1/4" ? not for me...

 

there is SO much more to be concidered besides ride height in this issue. IMO, if you just want the car to perform ok, and be low, get the espelir springs. If you go coilovers and want the car to handle well, i wouldnt go with any thing of lesser cost than like a Tein flex for current offerings.
