New Suspension!
Saturday, August 02, 2008 5:23 PM
I finally took some pics with the new suspension installed, I got it put on 2 weeks before the Tuner Bash. The Gold-Lines +Stock Shocks/Struts just didnt do it for me anymore. So the new setup is Sportlines and Koni Reds.

Thanks to Cyklone (from JCO) for the deal + Install.

And also, if anyone has pics of my car from the Tuner Bash, please send em my way. My Camera crapped out on me, so I didn't get any. (Thanks in Advance)

Comments and Criticism are welcome.

That is awesome. Great job! Those rims remind me of older-style Ferraris' rims.

Love it! I have the same set up - sportlines and koni reds. How do you like the ride quality and what are the koni's set at for firm/soft? I'm running full soft front and half turn from soft rear, and its about as comfortable as I can get. The more firm you go with the koni's though, the more jolting the ride is going to be obviously.
Eibach has a great spring here though, the lower spring rate allows you to truely tune in a softer ride, compared to say B&G where the spring rate is so high it doesn't really matter what the struts are set to because the springs do not give a whole lot anyway. Love the wheels too!

Enjoy

Im just using whatever the previous owner of the suspension has the Reds set at, since I just swapped the suspension. I may adjust them over the winter while im working on the car, but im happy with the ride. Im pretty sure they are set pretty firm though, but its a much better ride then I had before, night and day.

And ZSpot, yeah, I know the drums are hurtin me, im going to spray em flat black soon.
