Things they don't tell you about Coilovers

2011 Nismo#91

After reading and researching a lot about coil overs. For me I have come to the conclusion that unless I am ready to spend many thousands of dollars not only in parts but tuning as well it's better off not to mess with it (it being the nismo setup). From what I have read the lower cost and even average mainstream shocks for the most part are so poor in consistency it made them wonder if they even came from the same manufacturer.


This guy coveres not only shocks but pretty much everything suspension wise.

Ya its that right there that may convince me to stay with the setup I have, maybe just add some sway bars...maybe. If I don't understand it and it requires all of this work on tuning it and such, i just don't track it in that much of competitive way to where it makes sense. I think I may be happy with what I have then. CAI, CBE, Tune, Stoptech rotors and Hawk pads. BOOM lol. Plus, the best thing for track in my opinion is bomb-*** brakes and tires.
