Small town canadian boy looking for some HELP!
Hi there everyone, I have had my suby for about a year now and I am getting ready to start doing some mods and would like to get some input from other suby owners.
My first mod I want to do is a fully adjustable coilover kit and what I have found is the TIEN Flex damper kit and from what I have read it is a little hard on the back side if you know what I mean. Can someone HELP me in the right direction.

Do you plan on doing track days, autocross or just some spirited driving? Explain what you want (performance, comfort, looks, ride height adjustable, dampening adjustments) and it will be easier for people to make good suggestions.

Re: coilovers
I am looking for looks more then anything with some sprited driving. since the power band doesnt really kick in until about 4000rpm.
I guess I am trying to find out if just replacing the struts and shocks with a lowering spring will accomidate what i am looking for for looks and drivability compared to going all out with a fully adjutable coilover.
I found a site called www.hotbits.ca that carry a line for autocross and rally but I am not really into that at the moment.

kyb struts and some h&r springs are a good affordable setup with 5 way ajdustability.
run about 750 for the set up i would guess. You can also find them used on here i'm sure. I have that setup for street and the ride and look is very nice...i will be getting the kw's later when i track though...yeaaaah boy!
good luck r-
