Any body using a NEX suspension full coilover set up? I want to go 3" to 4" with a moderate ride. I know that they are fairly new to the market. Any advice?:confused:
 
undefinedI would advise not doing a 3-4" drop on your 2g. :thumbdown I have a 2.5" drop on my 2g and it is more hassle than it is worth. I scrape or bottom out on speed bumps and dips often, even though I try not to. My personal opinion is not to pass the 2" mark, and your tires will last longer.
 
My Bother has NEX on his AWD Talon. He lowered its about 2.75" and it handles like crazy but it is a very agressive kit. The coilover design is pretty good the strut does not bottom out. The springs rates are 450 front and 350 rear. Not recomended for bad roads.
Oh yeah , the tires dont last very long after going that low, camber kit recomended.
 
I have NEX suspension. On my car it was damn near impossible to not lower it 2.5-3" and it pisses me off. I'd really like to have it more like 2" but the NEX coilovers just wont do it. The ride is nice if your on really smooth roads. Bumps are enemies, dips (like the ones in the highway) will suck hardcore for a minute it feels like your on a rollercoaster. Speed bumps have to be taken at 2 mph.... If i had it to do over again I would have gotten lowering springs and a nice set of shocks.
