Suspension Question

Looking to order new coilover suspension, got a quick question about fitment across the SW generation. I'm looking into the megan coilover, one thing I'm curious about is, is there any differences between how the suspension will bolt up between the years 1990-1995? I was also looking into the tein coilover. I've read some reviews on the tein, alot of people have said that unless you get the top of the line in the tein lineup then there's all to special about their more basic systems. I've also read that the adjuster knobs on the tein coilover are prone to rusting thus making it hard to fine tune the ride. Any and all comments on the above are much appreciated!

The suspension should be the same & all 2nd gen cars so you should not have an issue with fitment. If you go with Megans just buy them for the year you have unless ur buying used, then any 2nd gen should fit.

As far as springs go, I would get what you can afford. Unless you are going to do alot of hard turning, like slolam racing, then you dont need "top of the line" Most aftermarket springs are better than stock, so anything you buy is an improvement. Just buy whats in ur budget. When ever you change ur oil, spray a shot of WD40 on the adjusters to repel water, & they should be fine.

I would also recommend Urathane suspension mounts. They are easy to install & cheap too. ($100 on ebay) & get a set of sway bar end links from 2s R US - VERY COOL!
