Bashar...thats you right?

I guess you know what i mean then...a littel more stiffness and less recoil would be better

just swap out your front stock 200lb springs with 400lb springs. its a very easy and inexpensive fix.

then the whole shock running will be off. Car will bounce (springy feeling) more. Springs and shocks need to work together.

i have ordered a set of 4.0 coilovers for my 3.6RS.. let's see how that goes after installation.. eta of the parts is around 2-3 weeks. will update after!

TPC Racing changed my front springs and the suspension works great!!! There is too much of a spread between the front and rear springs from the factory. I believe the rear are 600lb and the fronts are 200lb. They feel that there should only be a 200lb spread from front to back.

I know that everyone has a different opinion on suspension, but TPC Racing keeps winning races...so im going to take their advice...

Guys, i can attest that you can use up to about 400# springs on the front without the need to re-valve. I have spoken with TPC about this, since they dyno and rebuild the stock shocks. I have run 392#/672# springs for the past 2 years without issue, and the car is faster on track, and still perfectly fine on the street. Cheapest, best upgrade you can do.

You can also send them off to Bilstein to be rebuilt and re-valved. Even more ideal, and would be much more effective than using the 4.0 or any other .2RS stock parts. Front rate is too low, so is the rear for that matter (on .1RS).

I have a new suspension which I will be installing in this offseason, which runs on 500#/800# rates and is single adjustable (high end mono-tube). It also allows for even higher rates in the adustment range, so can also try 600/900. I'll then send off my stock shocks for rebuild/re-valve for the same rates and keep them as a backup.

I honestly have no problem with the stock bilsteins, they are a good monotube, especially given the long service intervals, but I do miss being able to adjust them beyond 2 settings (and at each end of the car), and I have always preferred single-adjustable, as we are doing DE's, not racing. There has recently been an "affordable" single adjustable setup released for our cars that I know works.
