Upgrading Suspension


Recommended Posts

Posted

Ok, well basically since I've got the car its had its major service.

Next I done the brakes - Ferodo DS2500 pads, zerosport grooved disks, HEL braided brake lines, RBF600 brake fluid.

Now I want to sort out the suspension, it seems to feel very soft - previous cars have had coilovers. Whats the best first steps?

Don't have a mega budget so I would like to know whats going to improve it the most without big bucks. So would that be droplinks, anti roll bars and springs? or search for some coilovers in the for sale section?

Thinking about some Whiteline Flatout Springs, rear anti roll bar and droplinks just now. Whats the consensus?

For a V4 Type R.

Cheers

On my blobeye WRX I got the Whiteline front/rear drop links, front/rear arbs and anti lift kit along

with Eibach springs which I'm happy enough with.

The Eibach doesn't drop it as low as I would've liked (in hindsight) but it's alright.

Yeah I've heard about people wishing it was a bit lower with the Eibachs. But also heard that the Flatout springs are more for looks as opposed to handling performance which I'm not sure if thats true. There are also the whiteline control springs so really just looking for a couple of peoples experiences with each before I make a decision.

Cheers for the input.
