Got me some new coils with 10k/8k springs. Anyone running springs at those rates or higher? I wanna know how it feels on the street, this was sort of an impulse and it's my only car haha.

These are valved for street use I believe as well. I plan on doing Swift springs too, but at the moment I couldn't justify spending extra money.

Yeah I hear ya, I've never owned any Stance coilovers, but they are the same value and market as the 500 series Fotunes, so I imagine they will be nice.

Had my fronts at full stiffness, and rear about 3/4's stiff. I like the rear to squat a little tiny bit when drifting.

run stiffer springs and keep the shocks at full soft

keeps it smooth yet still saves the undercarriage

Forgot who i was supposed to quote, but some people daily badass rides. Some people are bitches their whole lives. If you want your car to have luxury ride and be cheap get real. Race car drivers don't cruise around in sweet smooth riding Cadillacs for a reason. But what do I kno I live in FL

Edit: forgot to mention soaps idea. A personal fave!

Think it all depends on where youre at. Roads out here in VA, specially down VA Beach side, is fucking horrible. I had my Aragostas set up for Japanese roads and forgot to dial down the stiffness when i slapped them. I think I pee'd a lil blood after driving out to VA Beach the first time. I got mine on full soft on 10/8 springs...

Anyways, I'm throwing in a clutch into the car this weekend...should i bother turning the flywheel? This should be just a temp setup till I get motivated to start the RB swap...

PBM's ride smoother on full stiff. So do K-Sport, and Silk Roads.
