Guy doesn't really sound like he knows what he's talking about... Probably just the same as the rest of them.

This might sound dumb but I am new to all of this. Would a coilover require struts? or is it both combined - springs over struts?
:oops:

Coilover = hard ass "strut" w/ spring around it. Most are sets (Tein, JIC) but the Ground Control (I've heard bad things about them) are only the strut part while you need other springs too or something...

Ok now that I know what they are. . . Tein has a set for our cars but its like over 1 grand for the set. I am wondering if anyone here has them on their car and can give some feedback. Maybe I will do a search, got to love the search option right :crazyeyes: I guess by reading up on them that they can "adjust" so you can modify the stiffness and lowering height. That is pretty impressive.
