hey guys its about time i change my suspension set up as they sound like if they are knocking on rough roads.

i have an as200 stock altezza i was wondering what coilovers to use and what spring rates suits me best ..

i was told that i would obtain a drop using the coilovers and that i could adjust the coilovers to go even lower.. i am looking for say about a 2 - 4 inch drop all around ....would any coilovers give me that 2-4" drop? and well since my shocks maybe dead by now ..comfort is not much of an issue for me since roads are fairly good and i don cross 100km

so any suggestions wold be appreciated... much thanks

My advice would be to get a set of MeisterR coilovers, he does good rates for paid member of the forum and the coilovers are fantastic. There's a review on them by one of our members HERE

You should be able to drop the car as much as you want with a set of those.

Just give MeisterR (Jerrick) a PM and he will sort you out Smile

Ji123 whats a good spring rate?

Well MeisterR use 8kg/mm on the front and 6kg/mm on the back and that seems to work well.

No idea, but you won't be able to use standard spring rate on a 2-4" drop anyway.
