hey guys. my suspension is kind of an oddball. in front i have shock and spring combo and the rear im running a set of JIC SF-1 coilovers. ofcourse this isnt very efficient as of now since the i run GR2s and tein s-craps in front. i want to continue this experiment of shock/spring/coilover to get the ride quality i desire (daily/track use). has anyone had any experience with this sort of setup? if so please input any info or feedback. if it just plain dont work then please inform me to the downfalls. what shock/spring combo would be preferred to match up with the coilovers. the springrate on the sf-1s is 5kg(progressive). anyone have any options to linear replacement springs?
my experience thus far with this setup is as follows.
-the front tucks in a little better but wheelspin is greater in rear. also the rear feels more stable.(obviously).
-understeer is still there but a great improvement over stock.
-miami roads suck and suck even more for the rear.
im riding on 17x7 all around with 215-45-17s all around.
any feedback is greatly appreciated. if i get flamed for this then so be it. ill take what i can and learn from it. i will continue building until i get it right.
thanks.
