What suspension, any suggestions?...

Even though the stock wrx suspension is good, I want better. I know tein is good(old 240) but are there any for a wrx? If there arent any better are there similar ones or on the same level but for cheaper. Im not trying to put too much, money on suspension but if tein is the main one, then Ill go with it sooner or later. Maily tryin to lower car because I can fell swaying when taking quick turns. Open to any suggestions. (whiteline?)


**Tryin to lower but not mess up my car on all sorts of bumps**

not sure if i'll be much help, but this should be in another section in the forums.

also, instead of getting coilovers for the first shot, i believe many of the first mods in terms of suspension are bigger wheels, higher performance tires, rear sway bar and end links.

much improvement is said to be noticed from these mods.

i agree with namakmono tire and wheels should be first but before that and if you want to roll on a budget check out www.cobbtuning.com they have a suspention kit that i have heard very good things about. i mean thats my next step for my rex. the kit includes front and rear sway bars and rear strut tower bar i belive endlinks too. but not shure for around $500. and later you can get the tien coil overs go for the type flex for a couple of reasons one its great quality, adjustable ride level. and you get the choice of getting the edfc controller that lets you choose damping levels. look it up its worth the money even if you have to wait a year to save up like im doing. i mean any one can go fast in a straight line. but taking corners at insane speeds is much more fun. good luck
peace

i think that if you're going to do suspension, do it right the first time.

coils.... TEIN SS are also really good.
