ok so what are the prices on blistein shock vs oem.
which is stiffer blistien or oem?
which spring is stiffer oem or eibach?
thanks for all the input everyone.
Rob your car looks perfect - I mean PERFECT - to me that is. I love your car - that tan interior against the white/black is nice! Sometimes I regret not buying it when I had the chance! I like mine too - and I believe after all you've told me the Swifts are it for me. I'll be looking into that.
RJPKRP, your car looks great, and I like the moderate lowering that the Swifts have. I think those are the springs I want. How's it do with speed bumps/curbs? I have to deal with a lot of them in my area.
Question to all: how much can I expect to pay to have the springs installed, and an alignment?
Billy, thanks for the heads up. I didn't realize the geometry gets all f'ed when we go to low (i.e. bumpsteer). I would have been annoyed at that. Good to know for when I go lower.Lower = lower CG (good) but too low (and compounded by too low of spring rates) = bumpsteer, excessively low roll centers and many other bad things, but that's usually when a car is 'slammed'.

I think you're going to have to do some research. I bought my bils at Shox.com but you do find them here on prime once in a while.what are the prices on blistein shocks vs oem.
I don't think you want to use me as a benchmark. I'm interested in more adjustability and i'm willing to accept all the quirks and harsh ride of a stiffer suspension. The question.. are you?please explain what u mean out grown them. whats wrong with them? thanks
My opinions;
1;This is not a race car. You are not shooting for .1's per lap. So a big bucks coilover system is wasted cash. Wanna race ? Buy a Formula Vee for the same amount and stop posing.
Hey; its half the fun doing the research.
Naw, half the fun is doing it yourself.
I completely agree with assessment #1. Now get out there and put the suspension in yourself. I've done it a number of times and it's really not all that hard. There are plenty of write-ups here on Prime to help you through it. Heck, if you lived closer, I'd come over and do it with you!
ok so if it looks better with the lower stance then it will bring them and get a better sale. How many want virgin nsx vs one that looks good with a nice stance you think? Thanks for all the replies guys
