thinking about getting coilovers, any suggestions? i was thinking megan racing coilover street series but i wanna get other opinions on whats good, lmk
thanks

 

That's what I have, they are comfortable but performance is nothing like the hks hypermax d that are on my 240sx.

 

If you want comfort id say the Tein CS. if you want handling either tein flex or I like my JIC's. if you want budget.. megan or ksport. ive also heard good things about the BC's.
Also depends how low you want to go.

 

lets say i want about 1.5" all around... can do? i have tein s techs right now thats why and spc front and rear, i heard that the front can only do camber adjustments and im gonna sell the springs and front control arms thats why

 

or do i need the front control arms? if possible, would you happen to know how much degrees can the megans do with camber adjustments? would they be able to bring the car back to spec ? because if not, i'll just leave the control arms on

 

dont know about the megans. i have control arms. even the tein s techs should need the arms to get into correct front camber. i had s tech springs before and needed to get the arms to adjust it enough.

 

how low can the coilovers drop the car?

 

depends which ones you get. I know the flexs go maybe 2.5" or something unless u remove the rings. the JIC's can tuck part of the rim if i lower it all the way. it just really depends which ones you get. You have to look up the specs. I might be willing to sell my JIC's if youre interested also. pm me.

 

willing to spend at least a 900 - 1000 for coilovers
suggestions?

 

if new only thing is maybe BC, megan, or tein basics. if used look in the marketplace.

 

im running tein flex's and i love them. i am at the lowest point my car will let me go but the suspension can go lower. all i can do is vouch for these but i have herd good things about the hks. and as for controll arms i dont run any simply because i have no money but am close around spec with the stock arms maxed out

 

anyone heard of BC racing coilovers BR Type? i'm thinking of getting them and i was wondering if you guys would know any places that would be able to ship it here at least 1000 shipped or less? lmk thanks

 

anyone know if its easy for the height adjustment thing on the BC"s are easy for the coupe?

 

remember, you get what you pay for.

In the drift scene, I've scene megans (along with ksport) go to crap real fast. Tein Flex and JIC FLAs are not bad but, they have the crappiest ride because of their spring rates. If you get either of them, swap out the springs with Swift springs. Be aware with JIC as they have stigma on them blowing out. Stance makes exceptional coilovers. I've read a lot of good things about them over on MY350Z and Sean (MunkyWurks) have recommended them from time to time along with SilkRoad coilovers. Both are priced competatively against more expensive coilovers like Endless or Ohlins, yet perform on par with them.

The other part is that when you get coilovers, setup plays a major role even in street driving. they will affect your alignment as well as your tire wear. and I dont mean by the ammount of cambering. you want to eliminate the tri-pod effect where corner balancing comes to play.

In the end it's all up to you and what you want to spend. If you're going to go cheap, at least have them setup correctly.

 

i love my stance coilovers .. i think they were 1200 shipped .. dampening adjustable and have mad crazy height adjustments
