swifts

 

s-tech are garbage but look good they actually make the car handle worse than stock. Apexi N1's really iffy on those coliovers yea they can handle a 9sec pass but can they do good on the corners like the KW's.

Not everyone wants to go fast in a straight line and since Robispec and many others use KW's for TA and auto-x those are probably your best bet for coliovers.

If your builiding a drag car then apexi n1's since like i said they are proven for 9sec. passes.

Also the GTworx/RCE springs you can get for $189 now and they are located in Maryland. PM Chad and see what he has to say about them or search there are a lot of threads with Swift vs. Gtworx/RCE but you can't go wrong with either springs.

 

S-techs definitly dont make the car handle worse than stock....i know this first hand....and as i said and you said they do look the best....

yea if anyone wants to spend over $2300 on a set of KW's hell yea buy them... but why do that when Apexi N1's or even the Megan Track or Street series well do the job

 

thats right i forgot you got s-techs i thought you had hotchkis. From what I've read it hurts the suspension geometry and is known to blow the stock struts. But you said it def. handles better than stock so I'll take your word on it.. KW's are worth the money and you can find them for less than 2g's now but I rode in Dave's car with Megan Coilovers they are def. nice. I wouldn't spend over 2grand on coliovers and now you can find the kw v3 for less than 2grand I wouldn't mind saving up and getting them.

 

or get megans for less then 1000

 

In stock here.

How bad will those s-techs mess my proformance up? Im leanin towards the swifts...thats what ive heard from everyone but how do they look i gotta search for some pics...what do u have on ur car matt?

 

The s-techs are cheap...as much as the gt works. that cheap. How bad dose ur car squat in the back when u launch matt? i dont want my car to sag alot when i lauch off the line. But i think i do what the kinda drop the s-techs offer. what about the eibach pro-kit?

 

^then you need coilovers not springs

 

yeah well how stiff are you springs? my car isnt gonna be strictly a drag car or devoted to it. i just dont want the car to be bouncy ya know? and be to soft or sag real bad.

 

dude u need coilovers period. dont watse money on springs when ur gunna upgrade soon anyway. you wouldnt buy a TBE and then get ur car tuned. then two weeks later get a fuel pump MBC and intake then pay 200 bucks to get tuned again would you? do it right the first time. just save up and get coilovers...

 

if your not going to upgrade get swifts if not dont do springs and just save up and get coliovers. There are lots of coilovers out there just choice the best that suits your needs. I think I'm going to sell my springs and going to save up for coliovers just need to do a few more engine mods than I'm doing exterior mods ( I keep saying that lol)


P.S- Travis I want a ride in your X. I dont no if I asked you this or not but how do you like the z chip?

 

just save your money and get some coilover i had the s tech and they are bad for 1 they are to low in the front if you have a front lip on your car it is going to get beat to death by everything and your nerver going to get the camber right for the front
