Every RWD coil-over I found was designed for the Z. We're lucky they fit the V platform. Some, like the KW, really don't fit right as the rear is too low and requires a spacer to bring up the rear.
Be sure to check the RWD coil-over thread in the suspension forum to see the astounding array available.
That is true. Or they are made to fit the coupe instead but never the sedan . Luckily, we use the same suspension components .
I'll check out that thread again, I was looking at it earlier in the week . Like for BC, at first I thought they were good until I heard a bunch of people having negative reviews on them . Even for the street basis Z, being a 500$ CO, not that many people complain about them. And when they do, it always backfires with the fact that it's half a grand. But I also read that the rears don't drop that much.
Not an X model, but. RWD sedan . I am aiming at the same height of around 26.25-26.75" from the ground as well . Does anyone know if the tein street basis can achieve this? I'm about to go measure the G/F height for oem suspension.
I shouldn't of spent like 3gs on my exhausts ;( I could've had more money for my suspension haha
The Basis will do that. I was at 26.5 but raised it to 26.75.

That looks nice. That is exactly what I am aiming for. How is the ride quality? Also, these are the product ID: GSP92-8UAS2 (https://thmotorsports.com/10455475-tein-gsp92-8uas2)
Tein street basis Z coilovers, correct? Price : $484.96
I found these but I'm not sure what the difference is, I'm assuming this one was the older model as it says discontinued? Product ID: Gsp92-1uas2 (https://thmotorsports.com/5244665-te...s-street-basis) Price: $603.21
We are talking about the GSP92-8UAS2 priced at $484.96, correct?

Overall, nice looking G though
Correct, GSP92-8UAS2.
The ride is very good, almost OEM-like. My only complaint is that the springs are a little on the soft side (this is probably why they ride so well). It'll help a bit if you get sway bars as well.
I'm at that height with MeisterR. There's a photo in my review thread.
I actually read your review, it was very informative . I've never heard of meisterR until you actually, but they look like quality parts.

Im running some sways so that's good . And that's great news about the ride quality. I also read alot about the ride being a little on the soft side. Last question, what SPC parts are you running ? I was going to run just the SPC Rear Camber Arm (Part ID: 72260) but not the fronts .
They drop looks nice to me, so I might just go with the Basis Z . I plan to sell the G within the next few years anyways .

I went with SPC F&R. If I were to do it again, I would get a different FUCA.
The SPC FUCA adds a bit to the height *edit* height of the control arm, not ride height */edit* because of the camber adjuster is on top of the ball joint.
To do it again, I would choose one that does not add to the height like the one pictured below or SPL (expensive).
So I spent all day adjusting dampening due to excessive scraping only to find out it's my splash shield hanging down -_- any suggestions on one that will hold up?

Mine's been through hell and is still doing pretty good, but others swear by those TBW type aluminum pans.
I was dragging a coffee cup for a little bit got scared it was my bumper haha. Let me run outside and get a pic if it's not too dark not sure if it's repairable.

Edit: here's a few pics
It seems it's catching on anything it can
That won't last much longer like that. Time to upgrade to an aluminum one.
