Suspension choice
Sunday, April 24, 2005 7:02 PM
I've got a 2001 sunfire. Getting my 17's this week, then the suspension in 3 weeks, then the BX bodykit in 5 weeks...soooo, what suspension should i go with to get a good drop with little space between the wheel and the body, without scraping? I was looking at the koni yellow/GC combo. Any suggestions please?

the koni yellow/GC are good. you can even go with the eibach prokit and koni yellows or the prokit with the KYB AGXs. the pro kit is a 1.4 inch drop



Im a Xbox 360 fanboy...and damn proud of it!!

yeah i was debating springs, but i want the ability to raise/lower...hence coilovers.

koni/gc for me... set to the stiffest setting on my yellows

i'm always careful for potholes and whatnot but seriously... the other day i hit the BIGGEST f'n pothole on earth and i'm serious when i say it's the size of rhode island

the yellows took it like a champ and i'm still rollin, i was honestly more worried about my strut mounts

as far as adjustability goes, i'm honestly too lazy to jack up the car to raise/lower it all the time. i put them on initially at their highest setting, then lowered the front a little, when i change my oil next i'm gonna lower it all around and then that will be it

if you're going for a body kit, you're not going to be able to go all that low anyhow.....
