goldlines
well i bought goldlines and i was told that sedan springs are better than coup so i got them...but wen i installed them on my car my front is dropped very nicely but the back is WHOA its like basically stock...if u guys have any idea why that would help or does it take a while to settle in
No one said sedan springs are better than coupe. Goldline only said that it suggested using sedan springs on a coupe IF you have heavy audio equipment in the trunk. Not sure how you imagined using sedan springs on a coupe other than a complete decision to reverse all that is logical.

Depending on when you got them they should already be the fixed version if you bought them within i think the last 3-4 months...
anyways i had the old version where my rear sagged, and i drove like that for almost a year, although they did send me rear SEDAN springs to fix the problem for free after i had them on for a week...BUT, i just put the sedan springs on 2 days ago and it drops my car almost perfectly, 1 finget front, half finger back..so i'm happy for now
oh yea i got 2 12's in the back too, not sure if thats gonna do anything though

Did you drive it at all? After I installed mine it looked stock, then I backed out of the driveway and it dropped down. Try going over a speed bump or just brake really quick and see if it drops down.
Heres a pic of my redesigned coupe springs:

it depends on whether you got the revised verison or the initial release. the first version had softer rears, and many ppl i know picked up sedan rears for their coupes and it worked great. i'm guessing that after the revision, the sedan rears were stiffened even more so installed on a coupe would basically give close to no drop in the back.

how doul i tell its the old or new version i just bought it liek 2 weeks ago...rear dropped about .5 off stock...help =/ its been 3 days since i installed it and ive been pushin down ...
buy some speakers and throw them back there in that b***, if you dont already have some. If it has been a week or so, it probably wont settle anymore. I have the goldines coupe springs and I want to buy speakers, but I am afraid it will sag
so I am not going too

i have coupe springs bought them back in november (old sagging version?), and i have 2 12" subs, with amp and spare tire in the trunk and its a perfect even 1 finger gap all around so unless you have a lot of audio gear for competitions it shouldnt be a problem.
I had the same impression when I installed the new version of coupe springs. My rear was high as stock. However, after I took my car out for a test drive, the rear sunk to 1-1/2 finger gap.
sorry kinda off the topic but i gotta ask..
