So, I'm thinking of swapping in some new springs,

I am considering 3 options:

1. Sprint
2. Drop Zone Coilover
3. Ground Control Coilover

I am running all four corners with Koni Specials, btw.

Suggestions!

Ive heard great things about ground controls and not so great on the drop zone. sprint's are good too

i think im leaning toward the ground control coilovers also, but i'm not sure the best place to get them

i saw that there are two sellers on ebay stores. they are selling them at 100 dollars less than ground control sells them for... and they seem legitimate. if anyone has bought the GCs and knows, please post!

and also they are offered to match to my koni struts. i'm not sure if that is a big thing to worry about or not.

the only springs that i really suggest are discontinued and you cant find them lol (tokico's, ST Springs, etc) but GC's are a good second

ST Springs and Tokico Springs are almost identical. The ST Springs are a bit stiffer, i wish i had found some of those before i sprung for my tokico's, cuz those would have been awesome with my konis. But, i am extremely happy with my koni/tokico setup

yeah, i think i'm probably going to end up going with the sprint springs. i wish i could afford the coilovers, but I think I should be fine without the adjustability.

although if i could get the ground controls for a good price, i would put the money down for them.

it depends on how low you wanna go... if you want a suttle look the sprint will do.. if not the ground control will be good.

I have a set of H&R srpings. I just need a set of good struts, I was told that the tokicos blues were junk unless you got a set of reworked one.

nah their not junk, their just not meant for anything but stock replacement. They are supposed to be 15% stiffer, so they would be a great combination with H&R's
