Spring Drop Coupe v. Roadster
 

Is the drop on the roadster the same as on the coupe? I've found differing opinions. I'm thinking about the Swift springs, but they don't have a separate spring for the roadster. Thanks!

Beachztt just threw some on. You can see them in the swift thread. Drop looks about the same.

The swift springs are a great choice I have them on my coupe but I don't think there would be that much of a difference between the two.

I cannot say for sure if there is a difference but I did see a post somewhere that said the verts do drop more. Here's a side pic of mine:tup:

Looks good :tup:

The vert should drop a touch more as it is slightly heavier.

Some approximate math:
500 lb/in springs, 190 lbs difference
= 190 / 500
or 0.38 inches more.

Results will vary depending and exact weight and springs.

Edit: divide my results by 4. Corner weight will be 1/4 of 190 (roughly) so only 48/500 or so.

ChrisSlicks is correct there will be slightly lower due to heavier weight.

Let us know if we can help in anyway!

Sorry to threadjack: FIRE we need to get some wheels on that bad boy!!!

From what I can tell so far, it looks like the drop visually is about the same. I haven't taken any measurements yet but I will get her on level ground sometime soon and post what I find. It is amazing (to me anyway) how much of a difference it makes it the car's appearance.

Here is a peak of mine on the Swifts...

I have eibach springs on my roadster. Same springs fit on the coupe but on the roadster it drops it 1.2 and on the coupe .9

Fitment if you want to donate a set of rims I'd be glad to get them installed:ugh2::rolleyes:

Here is a Nismo vs Roadster comparison both with Tein S-Tech Springs, they seem to be about the same size drop

Thanks guys! I decided to go with the Eibach ProKit since the Swifts are impossible to find...I'll be sure to post pics when I get them in.... :) Now all I need is some of those Vossen CV3s. Sweet!

CV3's is all you need now man! Awesome!
