Well you cant just buy a pair of shoes for any purpose you must ask yourself what will you be using them for. Well the same goes for tires, rims, and suspension.

There are many diferent types of suspension setups.

You have drag, circuit, cruise, top speed, and D1. Since you are asking this in the drift section I am assuming you want a D1 type setup. In my experience and everyones opinion is different in this matter due to the different driving styles. The best D1 suspension setup on the market is the JIC setup. There is also the TEIN that is justy amazing or you can also pay top dollar for the apexi setup. All these setups have about the same price give or take a few bills.

Default suspension

people are talking about using coilovers and such, i'm looking for a cheaper alternative to buying those things that cost upward of 1000 lol. i'm poor and i'm pretty sure that there are other poor people around. i was looking at buying some springs to lower my car, new struts and some sway bars to keep my body flat and planted while i drift. i can SORTA drift now but the body roll is too much for me to handle, i can literally like feel the car dip like a foot down in the corners. i'm looking at buying some eibach springs, cuz the selection for springs is not that great. i dont know what struts or sway bars to buy though. i know not to get the tokico struts because all i hear is bad news about them constantly blowing out

90 supra n/a: hks super drager exhaust - top speed 140mph

Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire.

I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed.

intrax springs are good i had them on my last supra 86.5 N/A and the suspension was tight and great. i currently am looking to buy those again for my 89 turbo now and i'll probably buy either toxico or kyb shocks. and that too me should be fine to mess around with cuz i'm not gonna be drifting in competition or anything so that suspension should be efficient.
