Finally saved enough $$ for some coilovers. Now I just have to choose which set. I've ran my stock struts for 60k w/ TRD's then Progress springs. So they might be a bit worn out by now.

I am not looking to slam my ride but I would like to have that option open. I am looking for a comfortable ride, where I won't be bouncing up & down like I have cut springs or hearing a loud thud after hitting every pothole on the pavement.

Anyway, I have a Poll so you can help me decide.

 

I see no poll. My vote is B&G RS2.

 

The Poll shows up when I click the thread. Maybe it takes awhile to show.
Here r my options

B&G RS2
F&F Type II
BC Racing BR
D2

 

I wanted B&G's...something happened..I ended up w/ TEIN Basics which is an AWESOME coilover if you drive every day and want some fun.

 

BC BR, because you have the option to run custom spring rates, shorter springs and shorter struts all at no extra cost.

 

F&F II

 

BC's go the lowest...

 

You can ask for higher spring rates on B&Gs too and I wasn't charged either, IDK about shorter cartridges though. Thing is their 10K spring doesn't get any shorter than 140mm(and isn't something they have on hand), BC has it in 130mm so that's where I'm gonna try to get the springs. The springs for the B&G RS2 are the shortest springs they carry from when I called about them. Either way can't go wrong IMO, BC has adjustable upper pillow ball mounts for the front also, B&G doesn't but hooks it up with shorter adjustable endlinks for the front.

 

After a lil' bit of researching I'm going with either BC Racing BR or B&G RS2. Now I just gotta look who offers what at the lowest price. I can get B&G's for $900 p/u. Looking at BC prices, any suggestions??

 

^Might have to get at Hayseed or Spoony on that, and they've gone with custom setups also.

 

$1000 will get you a custom BC set up

FF Type II

Had them on my car for the past 2 1/2 years. Love Them! I have the 1st gen. Type 2's, the rears don't go as low as Id like, but the 2nd gen. Type 2's are apparently threaded all the way to the bottom strut mount.... Def. a great coilover, and has camber plates up front for adjustment, I'd highly recommend them
