    need advice with suspension!

    hey guys, ive got an eg sedan currently sitting on superlows and stock shocks. it doesnt quite cut it for me.. i want some legit shit! XD loll

    i want really stiff setup and maybe just abit lower than superlows (2 - 2.5 inches) obviously a nice set of coilovers would be the best option, but what else will i require for my car to be as stiff as the one pictured..

    legal? lol, nothing is legal these days, if it looks defectable, it is

    sway bars man, 22mm with rear bracing, an coil-overs with massive spring rates, something like F:22 R: 18, should be enough to injure ur back in a day lol

    thanks mann!! exactly, everythings defectable these days, 1 more thing cant hurt toooo much!! :P
    i was thinking 14 - 18mm sway bars.. would that give me the same sort of thing or will it definately need to be a minimum of 22? i want to keep the original sway bar mounts if possible..

    The car in the picture you posted is doing 'the tripod' because it has coilovers or suspension with limited travel - not because 'it's super stiff'.

    LOL, quick way to ruin real world handling! Hope there's no mid corner bumps on that fantasy road you plan to drive on... :-D

    You can achieve the same/similar result with a set of aftermarket shocks/dampers - but have them built/rebuilt to have tighter "capture" so that the piston in the shock doesn't extend too far out of the body.
    Usually aftermarket coil-overs are built in this way with much limited travel due to the stiffer spring rates but not a necessity...

    Either one generally isn't good for handling because of limited suspension travel and "abnormal" movement at it's peak compression... recommended for hard parkers only
