WTB: [VIC] Need coilovers asap

nickoSP20 · 05-10-2013, 08:35 PM

Hey guys new to the forum and new to owning a SP20 and have done a lot of research on them and i'm stoked with what i brought, i will be doing a lot of track day in it and it is my daily driver. but in saying that my SP20 is to low! and the wheels i brought with the car r scrubbing on the guards, they are 18x8 rx8 rims with 215 tires love the fitment and size but as soon as someone gets in the back it scrubs something shocking. any way im looking for a nice cheap set of coil-overs to replace the KYB front struts and standard rear struts with king super lows springs. has anyone got anything in vic or is willing to ship need them as soon as possible thanks guys

I've got some I'm in QLD I can ship at your expense.

Aswell as getting coilovers... I suggest getting smaller/lighter wheels for track days..

nickoSP20 · 05-10-2013, 10:39 PM

car came with some standard sp20 wheels witch got freshly fitted with some Advan A048. semi slicks today

smurfy · 06-10-2013, 04:09 PM

Id be tracking it with them instead of the rx8 wheels.... was this a black sp20?

sp20 wheel = not wide enough.

coilovers puchase = any coilover retailer can get them. ysr, bc, blitz + heaps of usa brands if you like ebay.

id want a minimum 7 for track work

nickoSP20 · 07-10-2013, 04:22 PM

Yes it is a black one. lochlan old one. Will be getting new rims after I set it all up the way I like it for a all rounder. Wanna do a brake upgrade on the front but unsure what's out there for them and I'm looking for a front lip ATM. Iv see one I really like but I can't seem to find out what lip it is. It is on a members ride on here. His plates are MAG086. It's blue. Keen to find out what lip it is would love to get one. And I'm also keen to find out wha performance mods people have done and what power figure they r making. Cheers

nickoSP20 · 07-10-2013, 04:48 PM

And if like to know if there is a bigger bolt on throttle body for them aswell cheers

AutoExe front lip. Discontinued, very rare, but there are copies around.

I reed somewhere that a 96-98 EK4 civic front lip goes on? Am I reeding the rite thing?

Lachlan · 09-10-2013, 01:21 PM

My car is gonna look so different by the time you've finished with it!!

Also in regards to the front brake upgrade, I think the mazda 6 setups are the way to go?
