coilovers

[astroham]

i have a ve sitting on sssl's (new shocks to) i am not happy with the way it rides / handles / sits ... now i have gotten some info on coil overs and just had a few questions ...

1)Does anyone know what the pedders coil overs are like / are they as good as they say they are

2)Does anyone know anything about XYZ coilovers

3)Does anyone know anything about the tein coilovers

4)Is the $1000 price difference between tein coilvers and the xyz justified

5)If i do coilovers is it still worth doing sway bars (was considering adjustable)

[TinSnips]

The price difference is definitely justified - that extra $1000 is so they don't snap.

What shocks are you running? What don't you like about the ride/handling

Pedders XAs are a decent entry-level 'coilover' - but you can get a better-performing set-up for the money.

Teins are softer sprung but damped harder

Definitely worth still upgrading the sway bars.

XYZ's you might as well use no springs at all. They are the definition of shit, I had them on my car for 2 hours then pulled out.
