Thread: VR4 Spyder suspension options?

  1. #1

    VR4 Spyder suspension options?

    I have a problem of my own creation that I need help with. I got rid of my stock spyder shocks by accident. I thought I could use my my intrax springs from the old vr4 but that dropped the spyder rear way low. Also I'm not a suspension guy but it seems the top of the tire in the rear is slanted in.


    What are my options with a springs and struts for a vr4 spyder?

    It probably did pull the top of the tire in, a la negative camber. That could be corrected with aftermarket adjustable control arms. You'll end up needing them regardless of what springs you go with.

    The intrax are probably going to give you the most amount of drop. A lot of guys seem to like the Tein S techs.

    A bunch of us went with Tein S tech front and H tech rear with new stock ECS. There's a page on my site about them.

    Mod list (scroll down the page)
    JNS Engineering has your Spyders covered (and uncovered too!!)

    Thanks, the info on your site was perfect and the pictures showed clearly the drop I'm looking for.

    I'm picking up a set of the control arms this week.
