I want a 93, preferably a coupe but if it's in good condition I"ll take it. Who doesn't love a good silvia.
As far as I know they don't come in that size, I checked like crazy on google for them otherwise I would reconsider the slipstreams. |

no idea... check out tirerack.com to see if they have anything to say about that. i would imagine they are fine, they look like they would be due to the tread pattern.

So I'm torn between these two setups:
-Megan Racing Coilovers or -Tokico HTS Adjustable Shocks & Tein Springs The coilovers are about $60 more expensinve and have to be lubed frequently so they don't corrode in the winter, but are stiffer and will give me the exact drop I want. |

I've decided to go with coiloves, now I need to find good ones. My limit is 1k, i'd like to get something that can drop 2.5" - 3" and is rated about 5-6k all around.

nom nom nom... I already know I'm doing a 2.5-3" drop on 16" maxims 16x7.5 +35 with penguin spacers in the rear. My thing hear is coilovers, Some people say the megans are good but some say they suck. I'd spend $100-200 more for something that is a bit better like BC Racing coilovers or H&R coilovers or Tein Basic coilovers.

I absolutely love that VW. Sadly though, it would NOT last long in Michigan with that kind of drop :(
