Hey guys, I was wondering, I haven't seen any springs that provide a stiffer rate without lowering, are there any such springs out there?? I really don't feel like having to buy a camber kit to go with the springs, plus I really don't want to lower my car any. Now lowering a very small amount is OK, I guess, but I WOULDN'T want to have to buy a camber kit.

Sways would probably do the job that I want, but I see them as kinda cheating cause the sways alone really don't raise the absolute cornering ability of the car. So anyone know of any springs that won't have big effects on camber, shocks, and such??

 

The S tune set up (it's shocks and springs, though) lowers the car maybe 3/4 of an inch. I don't really even notice it on my car. It's an easy install, and definitely improves handling.

Good luck!

 

Yeah, but I reallly wasn't looking to spend all that money on the Nismo s-tune. Seems like there should be some $200-300 springs that could fit what I want nicely. Any vendors know of anything?? The sways might be the only option, but doesn't seem like it would be asking too much for a company to make some stiffer springs only, maybe some that lower only like 1/2".

 

Tein S-Tech Springs.

 

Hmmm, who sells those for our car and do you know any info on them??

Cool, Jonathan, been asking this question for weeks and this is the first real good answer I have received. One question though, the stock rates are 347/419, while the ones listed on this site are 386/403. I am assuming that this means that they are stiffer in the front, but a bit softer in the back, correct??

And I don't know if they are progressive or the stock ones are, but which ones are softer at first and then are firmer (ala progressive I guess, lol). Not really experienced on this suspension stuff. Also, how would I know if I need a camber kit with these springs, would they need to be checked?

 

Sorry, but I'm not very educated on spring rates. I would "assume" that these would be stiffer than stock. I don't think you'd need a camber kit at all. These don't drop as much as the Eibach's, and people are not needing camber kits with those as far as I know.

 

yeah, thanks dude. The folks with the Eibachs are actually buying camber kits, but there drops are lower than these would be. I will have to look at them more closely, thanks for the find. If anyone else knows any, feel free.
