Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

[Herman]

Another dilema...

Which is better in terms of comfort and performance?
I believe the Cup Kit gives more drop and its also at a lower price.

I need as many comments as possible!

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

I like the comfort of the KONI leh.

But the H&R seems more aggressive and its also cheaper... thats why very confused.
wanna seek advice...

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

why dont you consider coils instead?
it should be more flexible in terms of ride height and stiffness settings.

or do you want to consider my used set of sports suspensions from an e46 sports edition?

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

is the sports stuff different form regular stuff? ride height wise?

i suppose i can cut them, haha

 

[jinooi]

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

sports suspension slightly firmer on straights and grippier on bends (less roll).

slightly lower (by about 20-25mm).

cut at your own risk.

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

25mm is slightly lower? my piss stream is more mm than that

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

Is the ride on coils harder than springs/shocks?

Yep, it is. Btw, you can try a coilover and if you find it too stiff for your ride, you can sell it to me as a used item, OK? :nehnehhh:

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

lol!

ask him be guinea pig.
damn zek ark..

Coils are excellent suspension kits. Excellent handling and performance..
Most ideal if u track often...

But i dont!
And for a street car, everyday on coils i think my poor buttock cant tahan.

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

hi bros, sharing my exp:

was on stock sports suspension w/o lowering, running 19". tendency to scrub fenders/ bumpers very high esp high speed cornering and over bumps..

change to coils and max slammed, scrubs gone, only during very hardcore cornering and high speed over bumps on roads even with passengers

can see that you have big rims, probably with Koni setup and lowering, you will scrub badly..but do share your feel after installation..

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

hmm guys, what about eibach and bilstein combination? what you guys think?

 

[Herman]

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

Blistein coilovers?
Or Blistein struts/shocks.

 

[benji ben]

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

not the coilovers lah. no money. thought of doing the eibach pro kit springs and the bilstein shocks. that combination for my suspensions.

Re: Koni FSD+Eibach VS H&R Cup Kit

Any E36/E46 bros wanna get Suspension Techniques aka ST Coilovers (same as KW V1 - only height adjustable) ??

How about a Group Buy for ST Coilovers with airfreight from Los Angeles & GST.

It's a true coilover & height is adjustable to perfect height on both side!

The downside of spring only or combo with sports shocks, the ride side will always be about 0.5~1 finger gap lower than the left side!!!

Let me know wat you guys think yah......
