Talking Advice on Suspension!

I have the Gen 2 tein comfort coilovers on my sc for about 3 months now and rides excellent, but its not as aggressive as I would of hoped for. Does anyone know the best coilover for the most aggressive (lowest) stance? Thanks!

Do you want a stiffer/sportier ride, or are you happy with the ride and just want the car to sit lower. If you want a really aggressive/stiff spring rate, etc. you can pick up the Blitz coilovers for a good deal. I think they are still selling a set off of a SEMA car. Otherwise, just lower the car with the CST's.

I wasn't pleased with the spring stiffness of the CST's, so I had Jason at JPI (JPI) work with Todd at TM Engineering (DoubleWoosh) to get stiffer Tein springs and change them out. I'm much more pleased with the ride (no bottoming out, etc), but the front springs will only allow a drop of 26" (measured from the ground to the top of the wheel wells). Which is ok with me.

Before anyone asks, I don't know the Tein spring p/n's, but I'm sure that Jason in TX or Todd in CA would be glad to make the change for you.

You don't get the "comfort" ride like the CST's. I've never been in a car with the original CS's, but it's probably a little stiffer than those. I'm happy.
