First I wanna say thanks to everyone putting this together and Hammersticks. Pretty awesome post. So I am starting to do some research as im getting into the Suspension part of my build. So im not opposed to going with springs/dampener or coils. Clearly not air haha. My thing is this:
If I spend 1000$ on coils, I could easily spend 1000$ on springs setup.
So why wouldn't someone just buy the coils since you can change height if you want.
Example of what im looking at:
1000$ coils: https://www.moddedeuros.com/products/bc-racing-adjustable-coilovers-h-23
vs.
springs: most kits are 250$
Dampeners: B8's are like 600$
Money is a factor as I cannot install myself. So the original question is is seems like the prices are roughly the same if u get all of the suspension at once. (this doesn't include cup kits which are like 300 more).
I guess everyone is going to ask how do you drive. I daily my car to work on shitty highway roads lol (most of america or at least philly). What do I want, good quality ride with a big drop and handles well. I don't track the car. I do let it rip when appropriate. I would like to get into tracking the car tho. Not sure if what im talking about exist for around 1000$. Stock suspension really sucks, its like riding on ballons (im at 14000) and the tires make it so i feel every single bump there is (everyone). thanks for reading.
