Let's talk coilovers

[B-Man]

No, BILSTEIN coilovers or Stock ECS with GC coilovers if coilovers are a must.

Forget Tein. Forget JIC, Buddy Clube, Megans or any else of that crap.

It's still there.

People's memories are odd; I never did have a chart of Manufacturer : Dyno Chart like people think I did. But I do have examples of Shocks Behaving Badly and what I consider "behaving badly" really means. That has remained unchanged.

There's no value to naming names because really, they're interchangeable. It is easier (and less lawyerific) to name the good ones instead - because there are far less of them.

The problems are endemic to quality control and design. They cannot be fixed.

Anyone else find this ironic?

Hey hey, PM me price for PSS9 and 10 /12 H &R springs.

Same.

[B-Man]

why people are willing to blow $2k+ on 18" rims and tires but won't spend the same money on quality suspension or other parts is beyond me... our platform is weird.
I'm not saying any of you, I'm just saying.

I'm not going to spend more on suspension than I paid for the car.

Then again, I know you're not talking about me.

Shock body just extended so you can lower it more? Everything else the same?

DO you have numbers/graphs? I'd like to see the actual data you got for 'crap' and 'good'.

Did you quote the right person?

Seems a very small sample, and maybe it's my eyes going bad, but I have a hard time distinguishing color on some of those graphs.

I wouldn't either... although, according to what I think you paid for yours I paid almost 3x more for mine

Then again I haven't had to deal with someone else's mods because mine was purchased bone stock.
And mines never started on fire

you don't even need to say anything about the oil cooler situation.. my engine rebuild didn't cost that much

It's not secret, I paid $2500 for mine (it's posted in my garage).

The fire thing probably could have been prevented, had I cared a little bit more about the car.
