So my car rides like crap. This after test driving Dustins car. I order the urethane bushings for the car from poland. So ill see if it makes a difference.
I just installed new kyb in the front. and have TRD springs. but if i go over a pot hole at slow speed or a speed bump, it feels like and old chevy nova. Just crap!!! I have st swaybars, and j-speed strutbar. but it rides like crap.... It did not use to ride like this. Oh and i have 16 inch rimes, and tires are not that low profile. So i decided to go one step at a time, and see what helps here. Would rather not do coilovers. will start with the urethane bushings, if you have any ideas shime in. I will also upgrade the end links, but one step at time... no im no drunk, just typing as i remember and too lazy to edit. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

QUOTE (garin @ Aug 31, 2013 - 8:47 AM)  anything loose bolt and nut wise? im going to have to check. my best guess the shocks are bad quality, and maybe need to check tie rods. It all went sour after the sway bars, im guessing it put to much stress on the old suspension. Im still waiting on the poly susp from poland. so once i do that, ill check the rods, and end links, need an option between the kyb shocks and the koni shocks and cant find it. i mean koni shocks are great, but for 800 a set, i can do coilovers. but i cannot find a brand between those two, unless someone knows about one. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

kyb is a nice option. good ride quality. handles aftermarket springs well too. cheapest coilover set up would probably be megan.
