Doward and tsuper92, you guys have PMs with shipping info. Again, thanks for helping out with this. Blackgamer, I will probably wait until I test a few bars and then put all the data together. But I'll keep this thread updated. Tim

Gilberjj, I have the pre89 bars on my brother's car, so I'm good for them. Thanks for the offer though. Tim

Thanks again Jdub for sending the whiteline bars, I can't wait to get them and see how they do. They will be tested on every setting. Doug, thanks a lot, I really appreciate the donation, it's a huge help. Tim

I was just talking about a full replacement dash, not just a cover. That could then be flocked so it wouldn't glare and reflect and it would save some weight over the stock dash. I do agree that a shiny, reflective dash would be the worst move in any kind of car that's supposed to move at more...

how about a fiberglass replacement dash?

That doesn't mean they're right. But it all depends on what you want to do with the car. If you just want to lower it and drive around on the street, then any of those spring rates will work. But if you have too low of a spring rate and try to lower the car very much you will probably have...

So you're picking these rates because they're close to the max rates of the intrax springs. That doesn't sound like the best idea. Unless your car has a lot more front weight balance than stock, you're car is going to understeer more. Tim

Hypercoils are the springs that I recommend. I can get them for you if you want. Tim

They make sensa tracks for the mk3? I have them on my Honda Passport and they work alright, but they don't seem like something that would be very good for a performance application. I would say best springs combined with them would be stock. But if you're going to buy new springs and...

Also, with Bilstein or Koni, you don't have to go with RSR springs, you could use any 2.5" ID coil spring, which means you should use Hypercoils if you go this route.

Can I ask how you came up with 650lb/in front and 250lb/in rear? 935 and Poodles, thanks for the responses. Coilover sleeves aren't necessarily bad things, but super cheap anything is usually not a good idea. As you probably know, I'm a big fan of what Poodles mentioned at the end...

I would definitely recommend a Koni or Bilstein setup over the ksports. They will ride and handle better and probably not be too much more. Then you can use a spring sleeve and normal 2.5" ID coil springs. But it depends on what you want to do with the car. If you want to just slam it...

Dugums, paypal for donations is sales@tipengr.com. Poodles, you had 89+ bars right? I would like to test them. But let's wait a little while because I might be able to find someone more local with them. Jdub, I'm sending you a PM right now. Tim

Alright guys, let's get this testing started. I finally have some time coming up and would like to try and get this done now. I also recieved a nice donation from one of the Mk4 guys on Supraforums to help cover return shipping and the cost of the testing. So if anyone else who's not lending...

That sounds like a really good price for a CF driveshaft. But just for arguments sake, how much is the aluminum driveshaft? And is the price difference between the 2 outweigh the 1lb savings. Any rotational inertia numbers? Torque limits? Shock limits?

Tein and JIC don't make me think quality, but again that's another issue. And I haven't used any of their real expensive dampers, but their sub $2k stuff all seems the same. 2700 lbs is going to cost some money, especially if you're putting a cage in the car. It can be done, but it's not...

Why don't you do some research on the springs that Piratetip posted. I don't know the rates off the top of my head. And depending on what dampers and what type of setup you go with, you're options could be opened up. If you go with a Bilstein or Koni with a spring sleeve, you could use any...

You know cutting your springs would be even cheaper. (Please do not take this seriously.) What shocks are you running? Different shocks have different diameters and cheap sleeves may not fit over other dampers. Also, if you're paying $20 for a set of coilover sleeves with springs, you...

What are you even asking about? Coilover sleeves? Full Coilover setups? Without even knowing, I'm going to say that they're probably junk. Tim

Look in Raptor Racing's Section. They have both the front and rear. And those endlinks won't make the bar adjustable. Tim
