I know I would need a setup suspension and a diff. But If I was on a budget...?

I've got a strong running KADE 5spd with a J30 VLSD. I can swap in my KYB struts and Tein S tech springs form my vert, but If I just wanted to hit up a track, where would I find one and how do I sign up? Car is ready and I've got Saturdays off!

Yea i'd recommend getting a set of coils that are dampening ajustable, also look into a seat, and good front tires for control.. You'd be amazed about how much more control you have when you have something that holds you in place and with tires that grip up front.

Actually I'm gonna use the hatch and swap the springs and struts from my vert. I know coils would be best, but I don't wanna dish out the cash just yet, wanna get some base numbers if you will.

I've got some pretty good tires; g force sports. And I can take an S14 seat outta my vert if needed.

Thanks guys, all good info so far!

I know coils go lower than drop springs, I'm questioning the quality. I'd rather have a better spring/strut combo then a slammed coil with shitty damping.

you'll learn alot from just driving there

I never expected you to deliver them. I was just asking if you ever made it out to Milwaukee. I assume you sometimes do cause you and Vince hang out don't you? Could have met up, but it doesn't matter, I got that taken care of.
How much you want for those coils and how much use have they seen?
