Suspension

Hey guys I'm new to this forum and I needed advice on lowering my car.

I wanted something that helped me straighten out my turns. I'm looking into something that has better performance than stock, but at the same time I don't want anything to extreme cause the roads in my City are terrible(Montreal).

I wanna spend less than 2k on hardware.

I was wondering if any of you dudes had suggestions. What types of shocks, springs I need....do I need sway bars.

there are many ways to get your suspension upgraded. look into H&R cup kit or Tein systems.

Doesn't own me


If you are fairly serious about having a nice suspension setup, I'd go for a full adjustable coilover system. Tein SS, HA are great IMO. Other brands will serve you just as well.

Some sway bars are upper and some are lower, is one kind better than the other?

If I put the sway bars on my car, am I going to get slip differential on my car?
