Advice: suspension upgrade

[POS Racing]

Ok I'm kind of currious about those...

For $240, would they be worse than the 18 year old blown shocks that are on my '91?

OK I'm lost $240 for what?

Link Please!

I have a set of those blue Tokico's.
I have driven Miata's with 150k plus on OEM's that were about the same.
I wouldn't give them away.

I feel like I am going to get hung for posting this but have you heard of Raceland coilovers? Let me add that I have Tokico blues with HKS springs on them and it rides pretty good but as soon as I get those coilovers they're gone.

There's a rather extended thread on cr.net from someone who's using the Raceland units: here

I'm extremely skeptical about any full coilover setup that costs less than a typical set of shocks (or springs, for that matter). I'll be sticking to some of the larger name brands when the time comes.

I dont doubt that the raceland's are not a quality setup, but are they worse than 18 year old shocks? The answer is probably so or everyone would suggest them...

I just want to ditch the stockers and don't have the funds for springs and shocks yet :)

This product is intended to be used only in race cars and or show vehicles. The Raceland coil over kit is not to be installed in vehicles driven on public roads.

Really??

Not for vehicles driven on public roads????

I know from experience that a good shock will make a stiff spring ride as good as stock -- come ride in my car and guess the spring rates. If that statement is true, then does a crappy shock make any spring ride like crap? If that is also true, then don't buy crappy shocks. I know nothing of Raceland shocks.

Then buy good shocks. You just can't afford the slammage.

Its overated anyway.

If your looking for a good budget setup that works good for daily and track and has a decent stance look at Pro-kit springs and AGXs. That is what I had on mine and it worked great. And with 15s you'll have a nice stance not too low but low enough.
