My car is currently rolling on Eibachs and Koni Sports installed by a PO. I"m
pretty sure they are set full soft.
Anyway, I don't know if it is a me getting older, or the roads here in MN
getting worse (they have gotten REALLY bad over the last 10yrs), but I think the
car rides like crap. I never thought my Type 44 with H&R's and Bilsteins was
anyware near this bad, although that had 16s vs 17's. My 90q20v with
Eibachs and Bilsteins (and 205/50-15's) was pretty firm, but I expected that out
of the small chasis car. Anyway, I don't see the point of driving a "Miss
Piggy" that rides like this. If I'm going to suffer this kind of ride, I want
the car to handle like a Miata or something, and that's not going to happen.
Anyway, since I have to put the car up on stands and replace the brakes anyway,
I was thinking of swapping the springs out. Anyone have any experieince with
the Hypercoil S6+ replica springs? Seems like they may be a little
lower/stiffer than the '92 springs, but I'm not sure. Idealy, I would
like feedback on how they ride vs the Eibachs, and how much higher the car would
sit. I would actually prefer the car be about 10mm higher anyway.
Anyone have any '92 springs FS? How much higher are they in the front then
the Eibachs (I forget which variation of the Eibach I have, I think it is the
last one).
Thanks,
Erik
