For Comptech Springs Owners

Snoppy · 11-10-2009, 07:24 PM

I am about to installed my Comptech Springs with Tokico Shocks on my FG2. I just need picture of FG2 with Comptech Springs installed. I don't want to have my car more lowered in the rear than in the front. Please let me know your feedback of this springs. Thanks you.

They should flow like eibach pro kits same spring as comptech. However you should try tokico d specs or Koni yellow for best performance. I went progress and tokico and wasnt happy with the results but then again the comptechs may change that. Im currently on Koni yellows with eibach pro kit and I love it. Check the how your car will look lowered thread and you will see the drop.

with Comptech Sport springs, the front will be lower than the rear without a doubt. are you going to be on 17s or 18s?

18s look great on Comptech. 17s, not so much. im on 17s, but every pic ive seen of 18s look really good.

**JEA86** · 11-12-2009, 11:58 AM

i have 17's on Comptech and they look great!

treal512 · 11-12-2009, 12:00 PM

too much gap in the rear with 17s :T

**JEA86** · 11-12-2009, 12:08 PM

^^ i think its actually a really nice drop front and rear looks great with 17's

**JEA86** · 11-12-2009, 12:09 PM

and with my EP3 HFP wheels

**JEA86** · 11-12-2009, 12:10 PM

they have really great ride quality.. though they are a Stiff spring. But they are built more for performance than the soft 2 inch "show car" drop springs

treal512 · 11-12-2009, 12:19 PM

maybe its the difference between Si and an EX, i dunno, but my rears have almost 3 fingers where as my fronts have 1.

**JEA86** · 11-12-2009, 12:27 PM

^^ maybe it is cause i can just get 2 fingers under my back wheel and 1 on my front wheel! i LOVE the Dive look

treal512 · 11-12-2009, 12:28 PM

i like the raked look too, but 3 fingers is too much

im going Sportlines next week.

every 18 ive seen on Comptechs look fly though!

**JEA86** · 11-12-2009, 12:31 PM

I have used 2 sets of 18's in my life and ride quality compared to a 17 inch wheel has sucked...

Just throwing this out there... but did you possibly install the rear springs upside down>?

treal512 · 11-12-2009, 12:48 PM

heh, maybe! i got someone else (NTB) to do the install bc i was in a rush to get them on. im planning on doing these Sportlines myself, so ill check on that. is there anything else that it might be?

word on the 17s. low + 17s look better aslo

other than upside down i dont know what else it possibly could be unless something was stuck in between the coils tahts restricting them from gaining the full drop... which i doubt that

Thanks guys for your help, appreciated!!!!

treal512 · 11-13-2009, 06:16 PM
