like stock on good roads then over bumps and other gaps in the road their pretty firm. its settled to a even 2 finger gap in front and about the same in back. doesnt scrape or anything suprisingly. i thought it would.

That's a good look. Still unsuspecting and a smooth stance.

How's the cornering and braking??

Milky · 11-15-2010, 09:20 PM

very nice. i am contemplating going with a set of these or a set of tein s techs.

Cornering is flat. Braking is pretty much unchanged. I think I know how to bring out the most of the stock brakes so haven't noticed a difference.

The method goes by the not so flashy name of "threshold braking". I might have taken my car to the track for the past 4 years but I still haven't quite mastered that yet. And that is with most handling mods already done - light rims, upgraded tires, strut brace, hotchkis, tokico...

yeah i like how they make the sit. it has the right amount of rake IMO. but i dont know about how they do while daily driving. but i guess as long as they are softer than my coilovers on my miata it doesnt matter.. LOL

hell i can do that with both my cars, but most of the time i barely touch the brakes. i have a habit of heel toe shifting both of my cars while driving. i really only use the brakes to signal im slowing down by engine braking and revmatching down through the gears.

Yeah S-tein make it sit very nice, and they are pretty soft imo. Pretty much a stock feel in terms of comfort, but definitely stiffer overall. Perfect for daily driving, I almost want something stiffer.
