exactly what the title asks haha

 

stock fe5 off the turbo balt

 

how would those and my sportlines do? the ride is really bouncy right now. im trying to stiffen it up a bit.

 

Ditch the sportlines

 

yep. SS/TC struts and shock FTW!!!

 

why?

 

softer spring rates than a stock ss/sc

 

I have the SS/TC struts & shocks with the Sportlines. The ride improved a bit as the car isn't quite as bouncy, and doesn't bottom out as easily. However, if Pedders would have been out when I did the springs, I certainly would have gotten those instead.

And get rack spacers too. And a rear sway.

 

I'm running koni's and zzp's SSC springs. Great stiff combo.

 

so youre saying pedders > sportlines? i like the drop of the sportlines though.

 

For handling the Pedders win. But like I said I'm running my Sportlines and I'm real happy. I've never driven a car with Pedders however, so I don't know how much better the ride is.

I think the Sportline is a nice mix of drop and handling, because it certainly doens't excel at either, but it does a good middle ground.

 

i gotcha. looks like im ordering some FE5s : ) thanks guys!

 

You made your handling worse than stock. Congratulations.
