I was curious if anyone has tried drifting with the Racingbeat suspension(springs and sways) with kyb agx. I was looking to get such setup for mostly autoxing but I am also looking to get into some drifting. I know a setup for autox wont be ideal for drifting and vise versa.

if i was in your shoes id look into a full coil over set up, ie JIC , Tein , HKS Hyper dampner , Buddy Club or something along them lines. they might coast a bit more but if you think about it you will be saving money in the long run cause you know your goin to want to convert to a full coil set up eventualy and if you by rb stuff now then you are out that money when you do switch to a more racer freindly tunable set up. also on ower road race rx7 fc we removed the rear sway all together and about the only track we remotly come close to needing it is VIR. i would imagine in drift you would want it but you might want to think about trying without for auto x once and see how you like it.

ya you have a good point. I did some price matching and after I get struts and front camber plates coilovers already come out cheaper.

i use JIC majic flt-a2 in my s5 with racingbeat sways frount and rear, though my car is a street car that i time attack from time to time. i would look into them as there price is right if you ask me, i also use anti rear stear solid bushings and adjustable sway links and rear crossmember bar. now on the race car we use no rear sway with a speedway frount bar , dynamic suspention with exturnal canisters and all kinda sweet trick parts. i did learn though ur goin to need s4 lower control arms so you can get your car as low as posible by flopping the lower ball joint on them. this is done to help roll center of the fc.
