In search of the right coilovers for me.
Well, im still currently at the gathering information stage of this search. So far, i have established a price range (1100-1400) aaand what im looking to achieve by getting this suspension upgrade. Basically i'm looking for something to slightly lower (.5-1.25") my ride height, gain a good amount of stiffness and response particularly at the front of the car, and be able to safely experience and tickle my lateral G spot... Looking to maybe do some track days, but mostly spirited driving on twisty roads...i do like the idea of something rather stiff. So my options i have narrowed down to, are greddy X KW coilovers, BC Type DR coilover, or these new (i think) Stance XR1coilovers. Comparing the spring rates, It seems the XR1 is the most stiff. rates are 12k/11k or 13k/9k, so i think im gonna go with those, only no reviews with them. Does anyone have any experience with these or this manufacturer? I guess i'm just looking for some more guidance and information on these products i have considered, and if this price range is even going to get me a quality product? Or if there are better options i am overlooking?

I as well as other have gone with Powertrix and have been really happy with them, one track day on them and it was a major improvement over oem. Took a little while to find a good street setting but now that I have they work well on street too and on some bumps it's even smoother than oem. |

Those seem pretty awesome actually. What is the minimum drop on them? I could probably go lower, I just want to be able to get it back into spec without having to also get new control arms.

Greddy X KW
I'm also in the market of buying a new set of coilovers, has anybody tried the new Greddy X KW? I Would appreciate some information or a good old fashion review on and off the track?
