Progress Coilover Kit

[super_si_45]

hey guys, sorry for this lame post but i was wondering if i could get some opinions on the progress coilover system? i am just running sprint springs right now and now that i have the turbo i want a better suspension kit, the progress coilover kit has caught my eye, any better suggestions or any comments will be much appreciated (oh yea, it needs to be on or around about $2000) thanks guys ;) ;) :D ;) ;)

Where did you see the Progress coilover kit available? I don't think its out yet.

But for 2000 you can get Tein Type Flex, JIC FLT A2, etc...

[super_si_45]

it may not be out yet, its in mry borthers progress catalog at the shop and it says tba by it so im sure its not out yet, it wont be until january or febryary anyways until im ready to buy

ahh okay, I hope there's more info on those coilovers soon. :)

[super_si_45]

hey man, out of the ones you listed above, who in ur opinion is the best one?

[Suk02Si]

Either one is great. JIC sponsors and promotes drift events, so all the Nissan guys are into JIC. From what I've heard, JIC's have rust issues; they're not coated like the Tein's.

Sherwin @ Brake Zone is a dealer for JIC, he uses their products exclusively and has nothing bad to say about them. He's a real cool guy, his shop is down the street from me and I've hung out at his shop quite a few times. He's a vendor here on ephatch, username: DocofMind.

www.brakezone.com for contact info, give him a call.

Tein Flex with EDFC = around $2,000 and SSUSA could you hook up with them.

That's the way I would go! :angel:

hey man, could u explain the edfc a little bit for me? i read all that stuff but it really didnt make that much sense to me, is it possible to change the ride height from inside the vehicle or what?

Yes and no, you can control the dampening (stiffness) of your suspension/shocks via the in car controller...ride height is adjustable (coilovers) but not from inside the car.

awesome, thanks for the info man, see, why couldnt they just put that in the description?;)

[shimmy_yaz]

Yeah i think the best bet is the Teins

[Suk02Si]

I think JIC has wider shock bodies for smoother dampening.

Tein has a cooler logo....;)

Yeah, that Flex EDFC system is out of my league (price range). I should have the "standard" Tein Basics on Friday or Saturday. :)
