Hay gaiz! :naughty:

I'm really stumped on which coilovers I should buy to replace my Tein SS. I've been considering these 2:

- Megan EZ Streets (#1 choice ATM)
- F2 Type 1


I want some slammage so I need some decent aggressive spring rates. It's too bad Tein Street Basis don't meet either of those two requirements.

The Megans seem appealing for the price though with dampening adjustability and the option for slammage.

But I can get new F2 Type 1's which has no dampening adjustability for $560.

ohwat2do?

Re: Decisions, decisions, decisions...

Dampening adjustability on most of the cheap coilovers is hardly noticeable.....

3.1" Front
2.6" Rear

To give you an idea..

I'm dropped all the way and removed 1 spring perch on each of the front coils.
My car's at 24" all around from highest point of fender to the ground. That's with 215/45/17 tires, btw.

They're good if you don't want a harsh ride. They're pretty soft and that's probably why they weren't made to slam your car.
