i think it's a dumb question, but can i run coilovers in the front and stock shocks in the rear?

reason is the Ksport coilovers from what i know, can't be adjusted for damper in the rear and ride too stiff for me, and i didn't have much of an issue with the ride height on stock shocks.

second question, i was talking to someone who said that if coilovers didn't have a **** to adjust the damper, you could drill a hole in the middle top and "create" your own, can someone please reassure me he was pulling my leg...thanks!

 

I wouldn't.

Just get another brand of coilover that ride better. There's many to choose from

 

Get better quality coilovers and the problem is solved. Don't buy crap and expect it to perform well.

 

Can you? Yes. Should you? Absolutely not. I agree with the above posts to get better coilovers to begin with and leave it alone.

 

Better coilovers FTW

 

Really? Dude?? WTF. Why on earth would you want to do that. On top of mixing parts like that is a big no no. Don't risks your life to save money.

 

I would get a better brand.

 

i don't know jack about coilovers as you can tell, which is why i ask questions here before i do....not trying to save money, but still trying to be efficient with what i have.

recommendation on coilovers that have adjustable dampers on front and rear?

 

I have the Tanabe Sustec Pro SOC and they ride pretty good.

 

As do I. They're not adjustable for damping, but ride quality is very good. BB can attest to this as well, as I believe he was also running them before he went all purple and gold on us.

 

Ride comfort is excellent while improving handling over stock. Not nearly as stiff as some other coilovers and not damping adjustable either; only height adjustable but quality throughout.

 

issue i think i have the most is when there is a slight dip (highway) the rear takes the toughest bounce and makes the front impact feel a lot worse then it really is, maybe i just shouldn't use coilovers, are springs easier to deal with?
