Ultimately it boils down to how much money are you willing to shed for marginal difference (imo). While many may say that coil overs produce night and day differences. Call me cheap, call me Asian but $2k or even $3k for a good set is more than what I am willing to pay. Night and day differences for me at that price is getting AWD car for a few more thousand.

$300 for sways was worth it to me , but be warned, once you start, its hard to stop.

Go get a set, its worth it

 

that would be up to the customer to decide which best suits their needs/wants

as for your original question, it first depends on which swaybars you have - best thing to do is play with the settings and find one that suits your needs/driving style

 

i think im going to pick some up soon anyone selling theres? haha

 

Pretty cheap brand new. I'm pretty sure Hotchkis sway bars are $350 or less.

 

kool i look into them thanks.

 

I have hotchkis sways and cusco front arms soo you guys can come check them out when I I go to put them on


Thanks Z1

 

To some this hobby is figured around price... and to others it's the performance (wait... wasn't it suppose to increase performance to begin with? I mean... that's why we buy these things right?) If you mod your car to mod your car, you might cap it by saying "I'm going to spend 10k for a bodykit, lowered, rims, etc... and that's IT!" but by doing so, you're taking the "performance" out of the hobby... which it was originally intended for.

To most individuals, they don't have a set goal in mind. Ask yourself, "what do I want to do with this thing?" And if your cup of tea is budget parts and hacking up a mod list just to say you "modded" your car... then more power to you. But if you really want your car to deliver what it's meant to deliver, then don't cheap out on good parts... ESPECIALLY COILOVERS!!!! (I cannot stress that enough)

 

+1 on coilovers! I'm still saving up my pennies until I can afford a set of Bilstein PSS9!

 

What's your take on the BC Coilovers? I know a lot of guys in the Mid-A have them including myself. I read a lot of reviews before I made my decision including the one Mike did. I'd consider Megan or Ark as budget coilovers though.

Nice choice indeed

 

if i keep the Z KW variants are going on my car. out with the BC's even tho i love them for what they are.

 

I base my decision on results at the track. No one with a set of BC Coilovers has ever won any type of event, not to say that they're bad, but I don't expect their entry-level coilovers starting at @ $900 having much R&D put into them compared to the 2k-3k counterparts. (you can actually get them for $650 if you know who to call)

I'd suggest those coils if you're going for a moderate upgrade over stock/lower your car/if you don't really care about performance. I see a lot of these reviews and people saying how much more "stiffer" their ride is... "Stiffer" doesn't translate to "handles better."

Take a ride w/ someone w/ a set of Zeal, KW Varients, Bilsteins, Cusco, HKS Hipermax... and you'll never turn back.
