Re: new coilover opportunity (March, 2010)
I ride in a couple cars that are coilover equipped on a regular basis. One is a 240SX running Stance suspension with 450 front/350 rear spring rates. The other is a Prelude running Tein Super Streets with 450 front/225 rear. I don't find either to be unpleasant to drive, even on the garbage roads we have around here. Obviously neither has the comfort of the SVX, but when modding a car it's very seldom possible to have both worlds. If you want performance and handling, you will have to sacrifice comfort. If you want your car to soak up every bump and ride like a Caddy, it will probably handle like a tank.
