2:49 Slotted rotors and SS braided brake lines will decrease your stopping distance quite a bit. Does anyone know how many miles coilovers usually last on an everyday driver? How do they act when the car is carrying load? Say 800 extra pounds? I'm looking at the Megans for an SX4. Stock set up lasted 60000 miles no problem but I'm feeling it's time to upgrade.
those 6k springs are longer only because they are softer than your current springs so the only benefit is a lower ride height. your actually losing performance with those springs
@xstr33tr4cerx What? Do you work for MAXusa? sure they are longer, but I feel I am GAINING performance because I used to LOSE grip because the coils were too stiff before. Now, I grip more over bumpy tracks and roads, and my GF has a nicer comfy ride ;)
@didderson Depends on the kind of racing you're doing. If you're doing a lot of cornering like in a autocross or road course, then stiffer springs usually yield better results because of reduced body roll. However, stiffies in a drag setup in a no-no. You want the rear springs relatively soft on a RWD so that weight can be transferred to the drive wheels on a launch.
@flip9309 I was introduced to PBM by a friend in their OG days. They have always delivered the best technology for the price. I love their 2011 line too!
