Well guys, I'm driving my 04 coupe with sport suspension. Lately, my suspension has just been producing a "wobbly" effect. It's not bad, but it's definitely not the "STIFF" ride I'm used to having while gripping the freeway, turns, etc.

Since I'm not too familiar with suspension, I was wondering if you guys could help point me in the right direction. What would you guys suggest doing.

A) Going after market in regards to suspension?
B) Keeping the factory (dunno if it's much cheaper)?
C) Installing some sways?

The right is just not as stiff as it used to be; I'm still under warranty, but I'm not sure if anything is covered by that. I'm open to all suggestions; anything helps!

 

sways and upper stru bars... you can also go with the gt spec set up... getting it a little lower should help as well

 

art get sway bars.. I think i might get some too =]

 

Sways would be my first move as well.

 

What's the mileage on the car? Shocks could be worn, and the bushings certainly will be somewhat worn, though they shouldn't be too bad at this chronological age. Springs should be good to at least 75k, unless really abused.

 

My mileage is 62k.. I'm thinking it's the shocks, but I hope not. I mainly feel it when I'm taking curves, etc. It feels like the car has some extra sway to it...

Mike, what sways are you getting?

Well, not to split hairs, but you do not have a sport suspension. What you have is the regular oem suspension that all 1st gen coupes have that were delivered on oem 17 or 18 inch wheels. Only 1st gen coupes that have the sport suspension are 2005+ car's delivered on oem 19 inch wheels.

How many miles are on the car?

A) Tokico HP or Tokico D-spec
B) Find a low mileage used 2005+ sport suspension (shocks and springs)
C) Sway's (front and rear adjustable from a brand you trust at a price point yo feel is justified).

 

sounds to me struts/bushings are needed with 62k on the clock and
a wobbly effect

 

Shocks always wear out and after 4 years or 60k they maybe half as stiff as brand new. Rear tend to go first! But for balance change all 4.

 

I don't mean to steal the thread. I was searching and came across this one. I have the same effect but Mine is bottoming out in the rear. and the rear wheels are hoping all over the place at 60+ my front tires have Teething or feathering. I only have 46k Infiniti/NISSAN IS PURE ****!
