New Suspension

i used 3 front and 6 rear but i felt that ws too stiff for teh springs i had , so i did 2 and 4 and i think that was also a bit too stiff i think teh last settign i used was 1 and 2 or 2 and 3. the springs are like 130 lbs stock is somethign like 80?

Yeah, I keep mine at 1 and 2 almost always. Even in autocrossing I only go f/r -> 2/4; 2/6 if it's sticky pavement. My springs are 300/225 I believe, but I can't recall at all, too many numbers flying around from switching around on my old first gen racer.
Just curious, thanks.

the agx's are excellent. if you take the big jdm names like jic and tein and shock dyno them you find that the adjustment **** is there for decoration, the agx is actually doing somthing.
Do you have those Shock Dyno tests? I would love to see that. Tein and JIC and Cusco have put a lot of time and money into testing their suspension. Tein is involved in many aspects of racing and makes quality suspension.
Personally I don't like JIC because I have had too many sets just wear out too soon and they are expensive to rebiuld but when they work they are oustanding.
From what I have seen most suspension setups in America are of much lower quality construction and seem kind of "thrown together" for lack of a better word...
I am not an expert by any means but the Teins I had the spring stayed in the seat at any ride height as well as MY JIC's The current Cusco coilovers I have use Helper springs but the others did not. I would love to see some test of different suspensions though..
