Th3Franz Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 only 60,000 miles? why do you need a new suspension? -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 By then the struts generally aren't in great shape. Since you went straight for the k-sport air suspension, I'm guessing you want the car to be low? Do you have any other goals or a budget? what kind of driving are you doing?

claymore_6r Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Jamal, What about Koni with Tein spring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Konis are good. There are better springs though. Did you notice those questions I just asked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Why are people so eager to put coilovers on their street cars? Do they not care about ride quality or comfort and just want low? In the world of coilovers, like everything else, you get what you pay for.

N.sane Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 As the Legacy gets cheaper on the used market, it's more accessible to the younger generation. The younger generation only seem to care about being low and Hella Flush, yet spending as little as possible to achieve that look. It's probably the main reason why thousand dollar coilovers sell so well nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claymore_6r Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Jamal, My budget is limited for now..I already have the Spring and was looking to spend under 600 for good shock/struts. My goal is comfort with a somewhat good handling. When I bought the car it already have H spring on stock struts but now the rear driver side is sagging. Therefore I'm looking to replace the strut and maybe the spring if I could find something better. So far people on this forum seem to be pleased with Koni/epic set up. What'd you think? The car also have whiteline front and rear sway bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr4v3r Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I'll have koni/h techs on saturday. PM me then and I'll let you know how it feels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitetiger Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Spring? any set that gets you the ride height you want. just stay away from tein s-techs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamal Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Yeah as long as they're not S-techs. The H-techs are pretty decent, but usually a sag would be due to the springs. The shocks don't do anything to support the car (unless they have VERY high gas pressure like some motorsports stuff); the springs hold up the car, the dampers control motion.

lvethesnow Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 just looking into the future for right now. most of my mileage is highway so not to much wear on the suspension. my 05 lgt went out at 62000. just happen to see that on the import image racing webpage thought id share it. as for budget i dont want cheap but dont want to break the bank either.

Stevedorez Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 guys... so you do not advice to use ksports for stance purposes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 any set that gets you the ride height you want. just stay away from tein s-techs. Koni's with S-Techs is surprisingly not a bad setup to be honest. Anyway, the OP has a 2010 (5th gen) and we're all in the 4th gen spring setup... OP - look at the upcoming Konis with an RCE spring.
