Good workshop

http://www.tractiontyres.com.au/

Although suspension swap is easy as. Its just a couple of bolts. A couple in the engine bay/boot and then 1 bolt at the bottom of the coilover.

Crack them all off, pull out, slide in new suspension and bolt everything back on.

thanks guys~~btw how much $$$$$ am i going to spend,just want have an idea,and dont want to be raped :blink:

I think traction tyres wants about $200 for suspension swap?

Any import mechanic can swap suspension its only a couple of bolts. Find an import mechanic and I reckon they could do it for much cheaper as its only an hours work on a hoist.

Just make sure you do a wheel alignment which will set you back another $100?

thats why i want to go shops like traction tyres,want the job done in one go.and i have a limited knowledge of suspension things.

just curious any good shop in the north suburb,just use google map,traction tyres like 40kms away :blink: but if there isnt will give it a try as its a saus recommond

Don't be lazy, just go for a drive :D

Good thing about it, is that you can feel how much better your new suspension will be, you have 40km's to test it :(

good point. :blink: saw u a month ago @ glen waverley train station parking with few lines there

A point to remember - platform-adjustable coilovers don't just adjust the ride height, they also adjust the weight balance to the 4 corners of the car. And having the good weight balance is what makes for good handling.

called traction tyre and also went to center line have a !(*&^#$@(*^ with chirs.now i may need a set another set of spring :) . coz those springs wiht the coilovers are tooooooooo stiff(he reckon its like 10kg. good for drifting?) so now add up all cost = a tein superstreet which is brand new. should i get rid off it and buy a super street?or just change the spring,btw the coilover i have now is cusco,but made by KYB. any suggesion guys. im lost :O

    • I know it's an entirely different engine, but I noticed practically 0 difference removing or adding 2x 3in (5inch body) 400cell cats (one in each bank) with regards to sound. So changing the cat to change drone I suspect will have very very, very, very, very, very very minimal impact.
    • 200 cell cat will probably help. Do you have room to tee off a Helmholtz resonator anywhere along the exhaust? These can do wonders for drones, with a little experimentation with regards to length.
    • The car revs up through the gears much better/faster now, and fuel consumption doesn't really seem to have be affected either on a Hwy cruise, which wasn't expected  The FAB9 intake manifold has been problematic sourcing though, I've contacted Plasmaman to ask about their intake, which you can get different runner lengths spec'd, and, their different options for throttle bodies  The only real physical drawback with the Plasmaman intake is how to connect it to my current OEM style airbox, as FAB9 make a OEM style back half of the airbox to suit the larger diameter throttle body, and all that is required is a 30°bend silicone pipe to mate the throttle body to the airbox Car also goes in for some exhaust work in a week or so to fit the biggest resonator they can fit clearance wise in the front pipe to help remove some of the drone, there isn't alot of realestate under there, a rough guesstimation is it will only be about 3-400mm long and maybe 90-100mm diameter, and with a 60mm exhaust that doesn't leave alot of space for the internal volume of the resonator to do its thing I'm thinking I may need to bin the "high flow" 100 cell cat for something a bit more substantial, yeah, and restrictive, like a 200-400 cell, to help, but, I have ample room for a really large bodied cat to replace the current one which has around a 4" diameter body I may look around in the recycling bins and see if I can find a massive newish cat that was "replaced" with some new full exhaust system that the local exhaust shop in Western Sydney is doing
    • Hahah look at that smile 😂 Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol. I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.
