Can you recommend good shocks/struts?
 

Hi Guys!

I'm thinking to get either Eibach Pro kit or sportline to lower my car (probably Pro kit).

At the same time, I'm trying to replace shocks/struts too (since I have a bouncy ride after accident).

Can you please recommend good shocks/struts that will be a good match with Pro kit?

My vote, find a set of used BRZ Sachs struts. But something like Koni or Bilstein would suit a lowering spring better.

Find some Sachs from a performance package BRZ. I'm sure you can get them cheap from someone who already swapped to coilovers.

Are the Sachs same as the struts/shocks?

Is stock performance package BRZ sachs better than Koni Struts?

Guys,
I have a newbie question.
I have 2018 BRZ performance package, and it seems like PP Sachs are same as the shocks/struts (functions same?). And, I can replace Sachs/shocks/struts to Coilovers??

So should I just get coilovers instead of purchasing springs (to lower car) + shocks/struts because it will cost about the same??

Eibach springs + shocks/struts will cost around $600, and coilover is around $700-800

Don't mess around, get you some tein flex z. Good quality, affordable price. I've had mine for about 50k miles, no issues. Plus you can adjust the height to your liking whenever you want!

Sachs struts are a factory upgrade to the normal BRZ, they will fit factory springs. Think TRD parts. They are not better than a Koni. You posted you have a PP BRZ with Sachs? Then just get springs or go Coilovers. Springs: $300? Coilovers: $900?

SO...can you please confirm all I need to lower my car + fix my struts/shocks will be a coilover?

I know Springs are much cheaper, but then I have to purchase and replace struts/shocks too. However, with the coilover, I can lower my car and I can solve the problem with damaged struts/shocks at the same time because coilover functions like struts/shocks?
Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have a PP BRZ with Sachs, but I think my struts/shocks are damaged since my car is bouncy after accident. I'm not sure the PP BRZ Sachs functions as struts/shocks.

Should I get coilovers to lower my car and replace damaged struts/shocks?

Yes. Coilovers are a full package. Spring and Shock. Do some research and pick the best coilover for your situation. Or pickup the Eibach/Koni kit being sold right now I posted previously. I think $700?

Eibach $250 + Koni kit $700 = $950 , and tein flex Z coilover around $800.
so I might choose coilover although I'm not sure I'm going to get the tein.
