Lower??

[DamageINC123]

I think we have answered the question on "Lower??" Sounds like most people prefer lower. Springs or coils would be up to you.
Mine happend to have springs already on the car when I bought it. Yes my springs say TechArt and yes Johnny you are probably right when it comes to stamping their name on someone elses spring. However, TechArt doesnt just stamp their name on just anyones spring. The rims are TechArt but they came from OZ Racing. Whoever made them for TechArt did them right. No complaints on the ride from me or anyone else who has been behind the wheel.
Bottom line is if you lower do it right. Dont cheap out or you will have the issues mentioned in this thread.

If you read my comments carefully, the only inference that I made regarding the Techart springs was that they carried a higher price tag simply for the "name". And there are brands of equal " high quality" that probably cost less. Moreover, that H&R likely manufactured them for Techart. At no time did I suggest that they stamp their name on just any product, or that they were inferior to other brands.

and they spec struts with the coils and full coilovers as well. I have just the springs for now...I like the way the car feels. I've had it at a few good tuner shops recently to get some opinions on what to do next (for mostly track use) and the feedback's been consistent: leave the stock struts / TA springs alone, do sways and drop links and you'll get great overall handling without getting the potential harshness of most coilover systems.

I've been seeing these brands for years. I don't know anything about them other than they look to be well made and the prices are very reasonable. A quick search on-line revealed price points around 1k or less for a 986 boxster coilover set-up.

These are Taiwanese companies, made in China perhaps. Wouldn't put those in any pcar IMO.

I had k sports on my Talon and at first they were great I was more than happy with them. Had 1 shock blow out but they warrentied it no problem, I thought that was pretty stand up. However after about a year and a half they had all blown out and I was out of warrenty. I have heard they are better now but I probably wouldn't get them again. That being said I had them very stiff and beat them hard and actually didn't know they were blow out till after I sold it since I didn't detect a difference in ride. Like I said they were really good to me but next time I'd spend more for a better brand.
