Hi,

I would like to change my suspension for better handling, but I can't afford lowering my car more than half inch because I will hit the shoulder when I enter my garage. (I will hit the shoulder if I back up straightly right not)
I wonder which suspension is suitable for me? If chaning the suspension is not the case, what should I do? (sway bar?)

Coupe, sedan with sport or sedan with non-sport?

Tell me how you feel your ride and handling quality are right now. Rate each on a scale of 1 to 10. And then do a rating where you are willing for those ratings to go to for the handling improvements you want.

As a example I'd rate my ride quality as 6 and the handling as 9. I rate the ride a 6 because of bounce, eliminating that I'd raise ride quality to a 7. I'd be willing to take the ride quality down a bit with some extra suspension stiffness to say a 5 to get the handling to a 10. But some people don't want to make any kind of ride compromise and it's important to speak up on the matter either way.

get tein CS, you can adjust the ride height and its a set of coilovers made for comfort.

I have the 5AT Coupe. I am satisfy with the ride quality right now, but I will like to have better performance on making turns. I would like the have extra stiffness. I am thinking about the Tein coilover too, but I wonder how high is the max height? because I can't lower my car more than 1/2 inch.....

 

I am looking for similar advice. I have a Sedan 6MT (sport susp.) and would like to lower only 0.5 inches. Looking for better cornering stability, mainly less body lean. Don't mind a little more spring stiffness, but not much. On a scale of 0-10, and if my stock sport susp. is a 5, willing to go to a 6-7 (assumes 10 is really stiff). Plan on keeping stock 17" rims.

Was wondering if I can get away with just stiffer sway bars for less body lean in the corners. Brands?

I don't know but check out the below pages. I couldn't figure out the spec regarding the height.
