AeroGrace Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 Ohlins..... depends on how you'll want to car to handle most of the time, be it for drags/circuit or street use.....of course budget comes into play... nothing too hardcore or stiff or you'll be bouncing off your seat on the roads around here....

ix9 Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 paul, i like to call him "shaft" but no, im talkin about the coilovers... i can set them softer but then it starts to get interesting at 140km/h as the car starts to float heaps more...

AeroGrace Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 i believe the TIENs have one that you can adjust electronically from within the cabin. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/24043-adjustable-coil/#findComment-515936 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoOsTeD_RB26 Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 the ones that u can adjust from in the cabin are TEINS but its only damper adjustment....not height. So theres no real point in it because it wont help to raise your car.

NO_RSPECT Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 erik i agree with paul mate how about visiting wilkinson suspension for a chat, maybe some nice koni's with some matched springs, get the strut braces happening, and then get all the other whiteline crap you want and walla it will be nice and comfortable and safe and not rock hard. I used to have koni yellows and h&r springs on my gsr and it was excellent for driving around the subrbs and the city Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/24043-adjustable-coil/#findComment-516332 Share on other sites More sharing options...
