S2P2 Neutral Newbie June 25, 2003 Share June 25, 2003 PLEASE DO NOT DRIFT IN THIS POST!!!!! ITS MEANT FOR OTHERS INTERESTED IN TECHNICAL STUFF OR PLANNING TO CHANGE SUSPENSION SYSTEM.... Hi All Me and Saaber has both just changed out suspension to Hotbits Coilover and are using this opportunity to review this set of coilover for everyone's benefit....hope it comes in useful to all of you. Nissan VIP - Feel as a Driver The drive is not considered too hard as compared to Tein and any other coilovers. Comfort is still very much available. The ride is also not too bouncy. cornering is sensational. body roll is kept to a minimal. i can feel that my car was turning but really flat. My first feel of the drive at the first cornering was...."Wow, what a breeze". the feel is different from that of stock which has very heavy body roll. The car also seems to respond pretty well now due to lack in body lag. Handling of the car is also very much 'tighter' now. Nissan VIP - Feel as a Passenger So far no one taken a ride in the car yet......will get whoever to update once he sits in the car. Honda City - Feel as a Driver SAABER, PLEASE UPDATE HERE Honda City - Feel as a Passenger The settings is much harder than mine. but overall like the VIP, its still has comfort. cornering on his car is marvellous as he has even less roll as compared to my setting and his car is much lower than mine too. I do not feel that my ass is countering anything on tight bends. But his bounces more than my car.....thats for sure!!! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
