73datsun Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I've got a 2006 LGT. I usually do 2-3 high speed driving/track events a year. Along with rallyx, autox and hill climbs. It also serves as my daily driver. I do NOT want coilovers. I want a pretty much set and forget set up. Possibly with adjustable damping in struts, but not mandatory. I'm not looking for looks, just something that performs better then factory. I also do not wish to hack up and put Koni inserts in. So what other options do I have? If there's a thread you'd prefer me to reference, feel free to post it here. thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 If you don't want to do Koni's or Coilovers, then your only option is Bilstein HD's. The Koni install isn't hard, and you can even pay M Sprank to do it for you (it actually comes out to be pretty inexpensive). I love my Bilstein's, but other people love their Koni's. Rarely will you find someone with enough seat time in both to tell you which is better. You can't go wrong with either.

73datsun Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Is the Koni insert something I could do in a single day or would it leave my car down for a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 That's up to you. It's not hard if you have a pipe cutter, a drill and patience. Or you can buy them installed from M Sprank and save yourself the hassle for a small fee.

73datsun Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Cool, I just saw the thread. $1150 for springs and struts really isn't bad at all! thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 That's about the same cost as a Bilstein HD setup with springs, or a lightly used set of really good coilovers. I don't think you can go wrong either way.

73datsun Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 I was just looking at that. I'll keep an eye out for deals and just make the call on whatever is cheapest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow05gtRI Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I have STi Pink springs with Bilstein HD's and love it, for what it's worth. I know a number of other members have the same setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
