Q-Ball Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I'm looking to buy some coil overs soon. But if I buy from Held, I would make a bigger order and save on shipping. My plan is from HT Motorsports is: Front Coils Overs 350.00 http://www.heldmotorsports.com/WBody/Coilovers.htm Trailing Arms (no price yet) http://www.heldmotorsports.com/WBody/Arms.htm Front and Rear Strut Tower Braces (no price yet) From their site they should fit. http://www.heldmotorsports.com/WBody/Strut%20Braces.htm And for FFP http://www.fastfwdperformance.com/coilovers.html Do you think I should just make the complete order from HT? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
97loudcut Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 ffp ftw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19Cutlass94 Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Most people here will say FFP rears and Held fronts. But you can get a better, bigger discount from Held if you buy the package.... I havent heard anything bad about them, so I mean really I think its just how much do you wanna spend and just weight out the options....

Q-Ball Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Has anyone ever compared to 2 sets for the rears? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q-Ball Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Well, looks like I'm gonna stick with my plan after reading that review. Fronts from Held and Rear from FFP. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern8tion9l Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 is anyone using the fronts right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AWeb80 Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 FYI, that Held Rear STB will only work on the second gens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intern8tion9l Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 doesn't seem so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSI_MuNkY Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I'm considering trying Held on all 4 corners in the spring... a bit of a gamble seeing as no one else has tried them but oh well... its just a thought right now... gotta come up with the cash first... I'll be going with their Stage 2 coil over kit Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pwmin Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 i bought the hms coilovers from a friend with a 95 Z34. they were squeaky, clunky sons-of-bitches i think because the springs didnt sit flat on the mounts. i put them in my car with the stock mounts with no problems.

Are you happy with them? Did the quality of them seem cheap to you as it did for others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 they seem like a relatively new company(Held) i just started hearing about them within the last few months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19Cutlass94 Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Ive heard about them for a couple years... Just never had the money/time to do anything so I never paid much attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwmin Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 yeah, my friend bought them like 3 or 4 years ago. the spring, spring seat, and all that are the same as ffp i believe, but the mount was a piece of crap. not sure if the newer versions have been revised though. i got two sets of rings so i could lock them together instead of using the crappy set screws.

Guest TurboSedan Posted October 27, 2006 Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 i got two sets of rings so i could lock them together instead of using the crappy set screws. that's a great idea. those set screws are ridiculous. btw, for those of you interested in rear coilovers from FFP or Held please read this thread: http://www.w-body.com/forum/index.php/topic,51716.0.html maybe we can go through AFCO Racing and save ourselves some money buying the parts separately.
