Definitely coil overs. There’s no point to getting a turbo if you can’t put the power to the ground. ---

I might just get the turbo because it’s a pretty good deal. ---

Coilovers first to enjoy turning, once you’re used to that and take turns to the point where the rear brakes lose, put more rubber on the back with bigger wheels. Get used to that and put down some more power, in any other order it just doesn’t make sense. Coilovers \> Wheels \> Turbo (upgrade) ---

ehh, shit. Might as well get the coil overs done, I think one of the front struts are bad anyway. I don’t NEED a turbo, but I do NEED new suspension and wheels. Plus if I can actually fix my boost leak maybe I can see how fast this car is. I probably can’t drop the car too much, a lot of places I go to have stupid driveways that will murder the under body. But I would like the car to be safer at higher speeds. ---

But I would like the car to be safer at higher speeds. the only reason mines low, is because Seamus at inline lowered it that much, and im too lazy too go up, and plus i dont drive it much anymore. (dads car FTW!) [FRSport.com](http://FRSport.com) call them for a order, its better, and if you tell them i just ordered my coilovers plus 400 more in suspension, and i recommened you to them, they would guive you some kind of discount. idk. 920 to your door for the megan series track or street. NOTE: Track series is 3% more stiffer. thats the only difference ---

HAHAH, you guys act like if he got a turbo without upgrading suspension then his car will bounce all over the place from the HUGE increase in power… damn fools ---

Chances are I would run it at only 7psi until I got better injectors. And I thought the 240sx launched better with the stock suspension as opposed to street coilovers? I’m going to close this poll because I’m going to get coilovers. Thanks for all your input. ---

well yeah, with stock suspension the weight transfer to the rear wheels will be greater, therefore better traction… right? [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/wheels-or-coilovers-or-turbo/238299.md?page=1)
