coilovers vs springs... - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #173 3 posts Started by dayzdchika
is one better than the other? or are they the same? this whole issue confuses me...

I have coilovers now, and my ride is EXTREMELY bouncy, I think I'm going to take them off this weekend .... but I really like the look of my celi lowered, so I'd like to find another way to do it without spending $900 on konis .... so would springs work better?

I heard that Eibach springs is really good. I don't know about Intrax springs but it's drop is lower than Eibachs.

I feel your pain. I bought the Super High coilovers off of eBay, and I'm extremely unhappy with the bounciness, even when they're at stock height like mine are now. They also clunk and pop and creak whenever I turn at slow speeds. >mad.gif> Hopefully on Friday I'll take mine off.

New Toyota project coming soon...
