Stance coilovers
Stance USA
just some notes - Stance isn't the same big name like ohlins, moton, or KW. on the other hand, last year's NASA TTR champions ran a Stance suspension. To save you time, here is a link to the rules that designate what the TTR class is - http://www.nasaproracing.com/rules/Time-Trial-Rules.pdf. The long story short: "The TTR class is designated as a truly unlimited racecar class. It is intended for purpose built, tube frame, never street legal, and monocoque racecars, as well as very high-end modified streetcars with low weight/hp ratios. Modifications are completely unlimited (within NASA safety technical guidelines), although open-wheel formula cars are not legal." I'm sorry, but I haven't been too impressed with the suspension options available for the Fit thus far, other than the "OEM" stuff from spoon and mugen. I don't know anyone at Stance, I don't have a Stance suspension, and literally only know about them because I'm a big Evo fan and took notice when a Stance equipped car beat much pricier competition (to include Penske triple adjustable on remote reserviors, on the high end). I think that the people that have held off on coilovers (like me) now have a legit suspension to consider. I honestly wish I had never found this. |
someone on this forum has them. its a white fit.

i have them on my 240sx (gr+pro) and i loved them and compared them to teins flexs. they are stiffer and feel better. the only problem i had with them is that i felt every bump on the road and has a rough ride.
i would probably put these on eventually. what is the spring rate? it's not posted on the site |
Decided to bite the bullet and purchased them today. I'll post pics etc when I get them and install them.

I was at my local parts distributor yesterday and I started the convirsation with coil-overs in mind. I mentioned Tein, and he mentioned Stance. I'm definately picking up a set this winter for the following spring. He sells them for $1100, and their local so if there's any problems then it's a 20min drive for me to work things out with them.
~I think the front is 5K and rear is 4K spring rates. I think. |

I like to see how these compare to the Skunk2's regarding performance and comfort?
How do you like the Stance CC's FiT_Munkey?? Stance GR+ Features:

How low can they go?

i have a custom set from stance, race-valved and custom spring rates so mine are alot stiffer than the off-the-shelf rates which are 5.5kg and 4kg i believe i've had some slight issues with mine, as it's the first set from stance to be custom made for a gd3, so i understood it my front spring is too long, and while preloaded and the damper lowered all the way, it is still too high for my preference, a 2 inch shorter spring would solve that issue the rear suspension of mine is a spiral wound spring like the oem style, and not a linear like most aftermarket ones, i originally requested a linear rear spring, but they still sent me this one, and for some reason, i don't believe my rear springs are 10kg since it's way too soft and the rear compresses more than my old tanabe df-210's. i'm still working with stance to fix this issue, but so far, the feel of the suspension is awsome compared to before and i would highly recommend it to anybody |
does anyone know how much camber it can go?

kennef- these aren't for you. look below:
5NL15A1GAS Front Spring Rate5k Rear Spring Rate4k goes against that mumbojumbo in your head per the complaints you had over in the ET coilover thread. you wanted front rates to be lower than the rear. :rolleyes: here's your post:

do you know what the stock front spring rates are? because the higher wheel rate up front, in a FWD car(!) makes very little sense.

you should call the stance guys, i did a few months back on another application. that way you can get a spring rate that you like on them. i'll be going with a 3/5 or a 4/6 setup.
when you get the chance, you should call up spoon and tell them that they're doing their spring rates wrong. and swift too while you're at it. let us know how that goes:rotfl: |

i can't lie, i refuse to take such logic seriously. "because many others do it" or "because these are more expensive than those" are poorly constructed arguments that aren't convincing.
