Ive recently been shopping for a new suspension setup. I was looking for tokico D spec spring/shock combo but seems they are discontinued, so I just decided to go ahead and get coilovers I suppose. I dont really need dampening adjustment because id honestly never really mess with it after I dialed it in, so ive pretty much narrowed it down to the eibach's or tanabes.

I know the eibachs are great, but has anyone heard anything on these tanabes? I cant seem to find much except a couple reviews on g35driver. They have linear springs opposed to kw's progressive and also helper springs so you can lower it without changing preload. They are also stiffer (10k/8k). rumor has it KYB is the one making the shocks for these as well.

Im torn between these two because kw has a great reputation but Im afraid they might be too soft for my liking, or if I lower about 1" in the front, 1.5" in the back that they will be too preloaded. I dont know anything on tanabes quality but I like the linear springs and stiffer rates and the helper springs. Which of these would you consider more "aggressive"? I just want the least amount of body roll possible. I dont care about ride quality at all.

any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

Adam @ RCA has the Tokico D-Specs I believe..

 

You said you dont care about ride quality....but you said the KW might be too stiff,so you obviously care about the ride. Do you want it very stiff?

 

^where in the post does he say Kw's are too stiff? he states they might be too soft....or maybe im missreading this? lol

 

Sorry my bad.

 

Yeah im wanting something stiff. When you say adam at rca what is rca an abbreviation of?

Oh he is the one that actually told me they dont make them anymore!

Nobody has any experience with the tanabes?
