Sport Shocks

Easy E · 01-04-2007, 01:04 AM

Hey I have been looking for some good deals on Sport Shocks that fit my Reno. I was wondering if anyone knows of a brand that makes them for our reno... I am not interested in coilovers, but I really want to stiffen up the suspesion, as well as lower the car. Since I plan on lowering it I wanted to put on sport shocks to create a better and safer ride...

The only kind of suspension kits that I know of are the ones from BMS

They only offer coil covers as far as springs go.

Easy E - Your only option is APEX springs. Kinky here sells them.

Not anymore. I don't plan on getting more unless theres intrest, I lost money on the last sets because every week someone was going to buy a set then never did...spent allot of time answering questions for them as well.

Theres probably a sport shock out there somewhere, probably on the other side of the World but without the demand I'm not going to bother getting any.

Well I have found a set of springs that are made for our car, They are called "Intrax"
here is a link, 2006 Suzuki Reno Intrax Coil Springs

And as far as sport shocks go is there really that much difference between them. I mean I know trucks and suvs probably have different ones but as far as other cars go, they can't be that different... Actually I just found this site a minute ago, Performance Car Parts, Bodykits, Styling, Alloy Wheels, it has three sets of springs for the deawoo lacetti...

I really don't like the idea of the Intrax springs. Just the fact they arn't road legally or approved in the Country they are made in doesn't make me feel as safe as the apex springs would. Sadly I don't know where to easily get the apex springs unless I buy a buncha sets. As soon as I finish getting my business license I'm going to contact Apex...if the price is cheaper than before I'll probably suck it up and buy a bunch knowing they will take along time to sell.

Since when are Intrax springs bad? Intrax are used in Le Mans and Formula One all the time, and they've been around for a looooong time.

I actually have Intrax springs and it makes a difference when I ride my car but yet again I cant compare it to the ones from Apex since I havent tested them out my self.

I'm not saying they're bad. It's just for the lacetti they arn't legally in most Countrys including the Country they come out of.
