Ok, so when i bought the car it had Stupid S-techs on it and it bottom out My bilstein shocks, so i ended up paying for new shocks and getting stock springs.

I been doing alot of research, and brought down my choices to 3 springs.

RobiSpec

GTWorx Street/Track EVO Springs

Swift Spec R's

so after doing research i did not see much about the robispec's but saw alot about hte swift vs the gtworx

People complain about the shock hitting the rubber bumperstops alot with the swifts and not doing so with the gtworx,

My goal is to have almost a 0% chance of bottoming out another shock and having to replace it, which springs will give me the best combo with the stock bilstein? if you have pics please also post them on here, thanks

I voted "list your opinion" because any three of the choices you WILL be happy with. Each improve handling, not just looks. While they do improve looks, it's just a plus, not what they're ment to do.

Robi's drop 1" all around. Swifts are 1.3"F and 0.8" rear, gives the car a cool looking rake without ruining anything. GTWROX lower 0.8"F and 0.6" rear.

If you're really worried about the bump stops, GTWORX is the right choice since they lower the least.

My last Evo, I put Swifts on it. I loved them to death. On my current Evo, I went with RobiSpec's just to try something new. They handle on par with Swifts. Swifts made the car look better, but I'm still happy with the Robi's.

you'll be fine with all three choices since they don't lower the car enough to mess up the geometry. Espelir Gt springs is a good track spring as well. Robi specs and gtworx are probably the most comfortable.

Anyone have pics??

Which springs work best with the stock shock? or they all same just different lowering heights?

They all have different lowering amounts and spring rates.

Like Mitsu said, all are great springs. There are tons of pics out there with each of those springs. I ran both Swift Sports and SpecRs. I have driven cars with GTWorx. Have not driven RobiSpec yet. But really, all are great.

Op, do you track your car? I have never bottomed out on Spec-Rs. That is the only context I have directly so I went with them. I'm sure the Robi's are great too, but don't know anyone with GTWorx

I run the Swift Spec-R's and have yet to bottom them out. The drop looks great and the handling is improved. No complaints on my end.

To me Spec-R's are perfect for eveyday driving. No problem at all. I actually ditched coilovers and got Bilstein HD/Swift R setup since my car does not se enough track.

Here is a pic of the drop:

damn that looks good, better than my monster truck lookin stock height now.

Current Evo (RobiSpec)... You can see they keep the stock rake as the front wheel gap is larger than the rear. This does NOT mean the rear is lowered more.



My first and dearly missed Evo (Swift Sports). God just posting these pictures makes me sad Notice the even Wheel gap due to the rake.

so with the swifts the front is no longer higher than the back? is that better for handling? or no effect?
