I would like to know if any of you guys have experience at high speed the hovercraft feeling in the fg f6? and the front end at high speed is very unsettled. My cars suspensions are standard factory, any suggestions on how to minimize this issues will be much appreciated.Happy safe motoring to you all.

Guest XR09 Guests Posted 04/06/11 10:41 PM Share Posted 04/06/11 10:41 PM (edited) To stop it completely will require better bushes, springs and dampers. Nothing ties a car down to the road like coil overs though.Even though they call these hi po cars the suspension is set up for comfort. It works at it's best from 60 to 120. Fit some bilsteins and king springs and you raise that figure to 80 160. Put Teins on and you raise it to 120 220. It's what they mean by a window of where the car works.

Scared the sh*t out me! Booked it in for coilovers that day. Had to drive around for a week or two and I refused to go fast lol.The suspension is way too soft.
