Pictures of Racing Beat/RB Springs installed?
Hello,
I've done some searches, but not much comes up under "Racing Beat Springs". Does anyone have pictures of the .5" drop? I found plenty of H&R and Tein, but nothing of the RBs. I have done some research for springs on this forum using the search tool, and I think I like the RB setup for the slightly stiffer spring rate (but not too harsh), and slightly lowered drop, but I've yet to actually see it installed on a car. If it makes any difference, if the drop looks good (don't want anything too low/slammed, but not to close to stock either), I plan on getting the RB springs with Koni shocks. That paired with the RB Front and Rear Sways, I assume should give me much less body roll, sharper turn in, and response. Comments on this setup? The car is mainly a daily driver, and will be autocrossed for fun. I thought I read somewhere that the Konis also drop the car by a little bit, along with whatever drop the springs give, is that correct? Thanks in advance. |
Anyone?

look under my name i have pictures. i have a thread some where in here i made for it as well. but check the gallery as well. i also just posted in the calling all velocity reds.

you can't really tell the difference since it doesn't have much of a drop. (.5" drop in front and rear)

0.5" drop is very conservative, most won't even know it's dropped.
|
yeah, you'd probably get more drop by having too much stuff in your trunk...
but seriously .5 in of drop is hardly noticeable |
I got more of a drop out of my car by installing subwoofers. :D: Now with the S-Techs in the rear...:eek:
|
^ O is that what it was, I thought you had a body in there...

I'm afraid with the car too low, I could scrape the front a bit more than I'd like. Thank again, I appreciate it. |
The RB springs in combination with the Koni's and sway bars are a very nice set up. You'll be very happy. I have a neighbor back home who has this, along with some nice Enkei wheels and he is delighted with his car. Are you out there Razerback???
