Gst-spyder Bounces Too Much.

[sela-spyder]

I have a 1997 GST-Spyder. I put skunk-2 coilovers, and it bounces to much, even after I put tokico struts. If anyone has a GST-Spyder please pm me a solution, and what did you use.

Odds are, you are too low and are slamming the bumpstops. If you are up at stock height and this is happening, that's very surprising since even Tokiko Blues can control those springs (although Illuminas are what I hope that you bought).

I Am Not At Stock Hight, It Bounces Even On Smooth Roads.

I am trying to find out if anyone has a dropped GST-spyder, and what kind of springs you used. Please let me know.

Well, I'm trying Teins and Illuminas so I'll let you know what happens...

as stated, the shocks dampen the oscilation (sp?) of the springs. amazing that you are having problems. did you clip the bump stops? required on my ground controls or they will bounce off them. on street trim i am dropped 2"f/2.5"r w/tokico illuminas_no problem.

same as ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



i have had two spyders and on both cars i have used ground controls... on the first spyder i used the blue tokicos (premiums) and on the second i have illuminas... needless to say the illuminas are better... but i would go ground control or teins all the way.... ive heard bad things about skunks

I have a 95 gst and i use kyb gr-1 and sprint springs i think its a 2 inch drop its kinda low but man it drives like a dream doesnt bounce at all. i think it bounces more when it was stock.
