What springs do you advise me getting for the fit, want a drop but I still want a smoooth ride any input will be appreciated

 

Ohh and will the springs void the warranty???

 

I have Swift Sport Mach Springs...they drop 1.2" in the front and 1.0" in the back and ride great! I cannot say enough how much I love these springs.

Also...a dealership cannot void your warranty because of aftermarket parts...all they can void is the warranty on that particular part or, they can deny a warranty claim if your modified part caused the problem...it's called the Magnusson-Moss Act.

 

try searching through the forums first, you will find a lot of information that way. Anyway I specifically chose Eibach Pro Kit because it was a less aggressive drop. you will feel the difference but it is much more forgiving than others. Technically aftermarket parts can only void warranty if it is the root cause of the malfunction. Dealers cannot say they will not fix your radio if you installed springs.

 

Ok well I tried the searching before I post I always lurk around this forum and read but a lot of info got pushed around about springs and just wanted to get some personal testimonials from real fit owners and see what people had to say.

Does anyone have any say on:
Tein s - T1R - Tanabe

Was mainly looking at the teins, good springs? Never heard anything bad.

 

Count the spring windings... The springs with the less windings will have the most travel and work the best with stock shocks..... Swift Machs have the least amount of coilwindings(5).

 

I've done several track days with my S2000 with Swift springs and I LOVE them. Perfect drop, not too low, easy on OEM shocks, and gives a nice improvement in handling as far as body roll goes. Like the previous post mentioned, Swift springs have less windings, being lighter than other springs.

 

can we bring in $$$ as a factor? best bang for the buck? im considering getting springs til i save up for nice full suspension. dont mean to thread jack but im lookin for a more agressive drop. anyone have experience with Tein S-Techs on their Fit?

 

Where are you guys getting the Swift Sport Mach Springs?

Thanks!

 

Evasivemotorsports.com has the Swift springs for $254 shipped I believe.

 

yeah thats the only site i could find for second gen. but just curious is that a good price, just wanted to know is the extra 75$ in comparison to the skunk 2 lowering springs or the 50$+ to the tein, is the swifts really a noticable difference.

 

I read that the Swift Mach springs are the best selling springs in Japan and sell for $400... They are performance springs and the drop is for the best possible performance with stock dampers.... Js Racing is selling them mounted on Showa shocks and struts and put their name on them so that'll tell you something.... Using just the springs with lighter wheels and tires has made a very positive improvement with no regrets whatsoever. There is nothing like them on the market and it is something that you truly do get your moneys worth out of.

 

yeah thats what i realized when i read the article on the spoon racing fit in japan that has the swift springs with kyb custom dampers

 

They are a wonderful product.

 

I agree...they are awesome and I have ZERO regrets.
