I have a set of ST coilover if you're interested.

 

Damn andrei. I had all this stuff for sale 1 day only. The sti limited trunk, brand new hvt coilovers......

Then i found out my car isnt dead and now im keeping it all

Good luck man. And if you want coils for your daily driver i would stick to fa 500's, kw v1 or feal 441s. Unless you are planning track events and want to hate the ride on the street.

I would say hvt but not too many reviews out yet.

Dont cheap out on the bc and isc's.

Compared to other coilovers that are in the next price range up. Yes they are horrible lol.

You will regret it after a while and be wanting the stock stuff back lol.

Unless you like driving a car with no compliancy

 

And huh?!?!?! All coilovers are height adjustable. Just some are fixed dampening.
Maybe u should do some more research on coils lol. Do you even know what spring rate you want?

Also are you looking into a roll center kit?

I have to go to sac on the 14th next month. Ill call u if u are around on my way back and ill take u for a ride since ill likely have my hvts on.

Fixed dampening for DD. Rates match dampening.

They are a euro damper rather than japanese style.

Btw if you get a good damper with proper stroke and are running it at an acceptable height. It will give you the same stroke as you would have dropping the height on the lower bracket.
I would look into feal 441s. Basically bc parts on odi steroids.
Youll be alot happier and its worth the extra 400 bones.

Quality over quantity of mods should always be a car enthusiast's primary goal. This is especially the case with someone on a budget because it means you have less to spend if you don't like something or if the part(s) fail.

That being said, BC and the ilk are junk.

 

Lol

All they are trying to say spend the extra now on the suspension.
You dont want to blow your whole load now on a coilover that needs rebuilt in 20k miles. If it even makes it that far.
I know its in your budget at the moment but maybe sit on it for a few more months until you can afford a better quality set for a few bux more and not have to worry about the issue of quality control.
Honestly i would go with the feals. They are as i said essentially bc's built with quality and love from Odi. Plus you can call him and talk to him about what rates and valving would be best for you.

Then you have an upgraded and custom built set of bc's if you want to look at it that way.

Are you going to be able to afford the cost of uninstalling rebuilding then installing again if something goes wrong?
Another reason some guys stick with a ballin strut and spring combo.

No body is trying to parent you. They are just trying to help you not make a mistake.

If you buy some random bc's or isc's let alone used....you are in for the hurtin.
I would never buy a used set of coilovers unless they were freshly rebuilt personally.


So ill ask. What is your purpose with the coilovers and the car in general?
Track? Daily driver? Herra frush?

 

On top of that if you are planning on going low, other money must be spent on a roll center kit to make your car not handle like a pinto as well. Thats another 200 bucks not including install.

Planning on installing the coils yourself?
