Hey fellas!
Just picked up an 04 s2k last weekend and I'm still deciding on what suspension to go with. This will be my DD and I still like to have fun but not track it, maybe down the way I will but for now just looks and a good ride. I've heard of many diff. setups and I'm torn on what to get. Like I said, this will be a DD car and I want it to ride decent. Springs are out of the question, I'm asking for coilover setups only please. thx in advance
Also, I'm wanting to spend between 1200 to 1300 just to give a better understanding. Gimme some help. |
D00d are you ever gonna post pics?
|
save up some more dough and get JIC FLT-A2...
|
Oh poopy Dallis! I'm not a good photo guy and I want the pics to do the car justice so whenever Fredy can get some I will be more than happy to Scooter :clapper: the clap!
Mafioso:JIC's are kinda pricey for me. |
Smoothhhhhhh ride.. stiff.. s2k I was in took a corner doing 60mph+ easy.. hard corner too. Get what ya pay for. Should buy an s2k if pricey is a problem, honestly, lol.
|
S2k's aren't THAT expensive d00d. You act like he just bought an SL55
|
Parts. Parts aren't cheap.. besides.. if you want cheap... buy some KSports and call it a day.. if you want to get your monies worth, be prepared to pay a higher dollar.
|
What I meant was the JIC's are a more track oriented suspension and would be a waste of money(for me) ie. I'm not tracking my car. I bought the s2k knowing shit wasn't cheap but you can still buy good quality suspension for under 2k:poke:
|
My point is this.. if you have ANY intentions on tracking the car "down the road" by your own words.. why spend money on something cheap now to want to upgrade it later? JIC FLT-A2's are a smooth ride, not harsh, can be daily driven.. and are GREAT for cornering.
|
get some koni yellows
|
Gotcha! thx for the words. Anybody else have any input on other setups?
|
Jon talk to Leon you know he can get you way better than the regular chump price! let me know when you want pics!
|
get on s2ki there is a whole thread on this im getting the tien super racings but they are kind of pricey 3 g's+
|
after researching a lot of suspension setups for street use i went with the apexi exv's 12k front and 12k rear. i loved them and they are in your price range.
|
Personally i ride on the JIC FLT-A2. I can only speak for what i personally have. I bought them NEW and could of bought any suspension but went with them. I read up and figured they were what i want. They are a great suspension for the person who wants a nice stiff suspension and will push the suspension to its full capabilities. If your looking for something to drive around everyday and look good it may not be the suspension for you. I do not drive my car everyday maybe 3 times a month, but when i do i love the suspension and glad i spent the money on it.
:thumbsup: JIC's |
You took it at that speed, how bout the night we got pulled over for taking that off ramp over 100mph + and the car just laying flat into the inner lane, cop was so impressed we got out of the ticket. I also remember you being scared shitless ! meheheheheh
JIC Magic FLT-A2 FTMFW I can hook you up with some dope pricing on them if you want. |
Thanks for the help guys, I "think" I'm going to purchase the Tein RA's.....I got to talking with some members from s2ki who enjoy the ride and I can get a good price through my nigga Leon.
thx again |
pete i need to hit you up to discus some ideas for my s
|
Good luck getting TEIN RA's they were discontinued over a year and a half ago so good luck getting a set and they are not all they are cracked up to be anyways.
TEIN Monoflex would be better. |
Discontinued, really? Hmmmm...I better check that out. Everyone has their own opinions on setups. |
the problem with the mono flex is they have to get specially ordered from Japan
|
Versus coilovers ;)
|
|
konis with ground control will probably be your cheapest setup for coilovers.....and from what i've seen, they work great :)
|
CONGRATS JONFIN. D2's man.
|
D2's=KSPORT.
|
Agreed, I believe made in the same factory even{Taiwan}. Although Tein is made in China too. LOL
|
word
|
D2's are purple though. MUCH prettier, even though you cant see them. LOL
|
I went to Versus today and bought the R1 coilovers, only cost me $550 for them :) What a deal everyone!
