1 question though, he says he has 160hp. The only engine mods he has are Ractive intake and exhaust. Even with a sr20 and these mods there is no way he can make that kind of power right?

in the top you will see is says, "Bragging Rights". plus i guess is just Est. Horsepower: 165

Remember that the lower you drop the car, the shittier it will ride, unless you change the shocks/struts and even then it still won't drive that great (im telling you that from experience)-dont go too low unless the roads around where you live are in excelent condition.
that guy is a member here.....dont remember his name though. drop zones BBBBBBLLLLLOOOOOWWWW .....BLOW! 100% suck donkey.
you have these choices;
1. hypercoils, drop A MAX of 1 in, best handling coil spring for our car....ever!
2. groundcontrol, good but can make clunky noises.
3. tein, SS or baisic, both full coil overs, only ss have adjustable shocks
4. D2, lshadolf has um...and loves um.
thats about it for good riding/trust worthy suspension (if i missed any please post them up) none of these setups will be below $700 new.
pair any coil spring you get with KYB AGX struts, koni bump stops, and motivational rear mounts.
I would say dropzones rank lower than Eibachs and Eibachs are nothing special either. I can't wait to kick my eibachs to the curb.
Horsepower, He's not near 165, to the wheel or the crank. (now, I always assume a 30hp drivetrain drop rather than the traditional 12-17%, so bear with me):
The SR20 has 145 bhp stock and puts down roughly 115whp. There's no way he gained 20hp out of a WAI and exhaust. It takes a CAI, H/E setup to get around 165bhp, 135whp. At CAI/Custom GenV header (2.5" downpipe)/cat-less 2.5" exhaust/Pulley set/S5 cams/ECU/Thermoblock spacers/upgraded intake manifold/no EGR, I HOPE to get down 200bhp/170whp, but that's only what I'm shooting for, I'll be lucky to get that number before SAFC.

wow i didn't know Eibachs sucks. I thought they were one of the best, at least that is what ive heard.

They were the best 10 years ago. I installed them on my car in 1998 along with GAB shocks/struts (the precursors to AGX). The springs are too soft for the amount they lower the car. It was hitting the bump stops (shortened) every day going through intersections.
At the track, I could generate enough side forces on street tires (Pirelli PZeros) to bottom the suspension and make it pogo around sweeping turns.

wow thats some good info . i have S.Tech Tein springs..what you think of those?
Linear Mode
