which coilovers you guys run allow you to drop the most

i was just curious which brand and model you all have tried that allowed you to drop the wagon the most?

i heard Skunk2 drops an ass load.

A full bodied coilover with a shortenend body will give you the best drop and ride quality. I just installed Progress coilovers from my Integra on the wagon and I can go considerably lower and the ride is waaaaay better.

i heard koni yellows with ground control coils and ground control top hats you can dump the shit low and still have good ride quality.

I have skunk 2 Pro-s on my wagon and it dropped it huge. The ride is still nice i just need a smaller tire on it so i dont rub as much in hard corners. When i go to an autocross event i have to raise it up lol.

SKUNK2 all the way down

only the pro-s is the one that does it the most?

Tein HA's I was able to put the mudflaps on the ground.

949 · July 2008

but how is the ride?

was it rough or still pretty smooth?

whats the spring rate?
for both skunk and teins?

I was tucking 13s when i first put my skunk 2s on on

I have no idea if its only the pro s that slam it tho. My ride is very nice, i dont bounce around much in mine. My wagon is a dd and i couldnt be happier with them. I do have one road in my town that i like taking the ladies on that bounces my car like crazy

Rockford has some crappy roads tho and i dont seem to have a problem.

Not sure what the spring rate is. I bought them cause they were the right price

Dunno all the specifics but I do know the ride was pretty rough. I had it to where the flaps almost touched and had to adjust the ride so that everytime I hit a bump it would rip anything off the bottom. I also had some helper springs that I never installed which would have probably made the ride a lot nicer but wouldn't allow for maximum drop.

The Teins are being sent in for rebuild now and then up for sale. I will then replace them with the Ksports which don't allow for as much drop.

949 · July 2008

how come your switching to ksport?

ragenasian · July 2008

I traded one of our members some parts and cash for them. I didn't want any down time waiting for Tein to rebuild the HA's so I bought these. They dont' go as low but I will be having an extra member in the family riding with us soon so dumpage is no longer needed. Plus I have some very nice Ksport LCA's to go with them.

However we will have to see how she handles when the rebuilt motor and turbo kit get installed. When the Teins come back then I might change them back out. We will see.
