Question about suspension on 240sx
I need recommendations on which type of suspension to get for my 240sx. I have a sr20det swap on it. THanks.
Trust me...get "JIC FLT-A2"
Best suspension for a Nissan 240
Stance or KTS. Both are top notch that you don't have to pay for it with an arm or leg. JIC is great but the US support blows. Stance offer a second pair of stiffer spring if you want to go stiffer ride and KTS has great customer support and they do rebuild. If you have money to spend a little more then Buddy Club Racing Spec is badass also. Just do research on what you want.
How much are you looking to spend? What are looking to do wise?
There is lots of different options available.
FLT-A2 is head, shoulders, knees, ankles, and feet above anything else. its the only set up that lets you lower the car and still get a full stroke, nissans are almost as bad as the DSMs when it comes to that shit.

Tein Flex allows height adjustment seperate from stroke. Uses the same type of threaded lower as the JIC's do. Don't get me wrong though, I personally prefer the JIC's, just trying to give him all his options.

tein quality is just not there. im to the point where id rather buy the good shit to begin with and not have to worry about it. if hes only gonna be on the street tein might be the best way to go, but you really dont even need coilovers.

this is 2006, almost all of the coilovers out there for the 240 have height adjustment without sacrificng stroke, not onnly the JICs. I say, just get whatever decent ones you can afford since I'm assuming this is just a street car.
Please tell me if you think my car looks good. But don't tell me if you think it's ugly - only on IA
If your asking this question I say just get some good springs (Eibach IMO) and a nice set of shocks. Cheap and good for spirited driving w/o sacrificing ride quality.
i coudlnt be happier with my tein/tokico adjustable setup. for street driving it rocks.
See i doo want a comfortable ride as well as drift haha. I am not trying to spend a whole lot. I am probably going to go with some struts and sways. Any recommendation?
research
just get KYB AGXs and some random springs, should cost you about $550, that should be good enough for you. I would advise you not to get sway bars yet before you actually drive and get a feel for the car.

Got a set of Tein flex for the RB project. Gonna put the EDFC with so I can make adjustments in the car. Can't wait to try it out.
