S14 suspenion, need suggestions

Ok here we go...

My 240, I won't say the ride is bad, but its a lil bouncy. But I want it firm. I'm looking for a nice set of SPRINGS, nothing outrageously expensive, but something that will create a firm ride, and overall bring the car to the same ride height in the front and in the back. Look in my sig picture and you can see that my rear sits a lil higher than the front. I want front and back to sit the same height, and create a firm, not bouncy, not rough ride.

So basically, what I'm wanting are suggestions on some springs/shocks/struts that won't break my pocketbook, but will let me acheive a nice ride in this car. Granted, I'd love to do full coilovers. But lets get real, this isnt' going to be a race car or a drift machine. I'm using the car as a nice daily driver on my days off work.

Also, I'd proably like to get rid of the 18" wheels, and drop down to a 17" wheel at some point in the near future.

If I wanted to wade through hundreds of posts to try and even possibly find something close to the answer, I would have. But as you can see, I have a pretty specific question.

Dude like he just said -

it

has

been

covered

....meaning you won't find "something close" - you will find A DEFINITE ANSWER. There's a thread covering a bunch of springs. Do yourself a favor and do some real research. All it takes is a click of the SEARCH button and some effort.


CLOSED.
