    Let's talk coilovers

    I haven't seen a general coilover thread, so let's do it. I'm looking for a thread similar to the 19T variant thread to get opinions and real world data if available. Let's keep it to 3S specific for now then maybe get into the Evo setups with the Supercar Adapters.

    links are just for example, not necessarily cheapest

    Flex: Tein Flex AWD - Suspension - Pampena Motorsports
    Spring Rate (F): 671lbs/in (12kgf/mm)
    Spring Rate Adj Range (R): +2.0~-2.0lbs/in (112~-112kgf/mm)
    Spring Rate (R): 336lbs/in (6kgf/mm)
    Spring Rate Adj Range (F): +4.0~-2.0lbs/in (224~-112kgf/mm)
