Exactly, nobody in this thread has cut mustang springs. I wouldn't cut 240sx or civic springs, they are soft to begin with. I'd buy new springs then. I guarantee if you rode in my car, you wouldn't even know they were cut. It's funny when people disagree and say negative things about stuff they have no experience with.

I don't even have isolators on mine. It rides ****ty, just like it did stock. I don't care about comfortable ride, though.

And you're right, people really need to stop talking out of their ***. Especially the V6 section.

lol 240sx springs are stiffer than Mustang V6 springs are stock for stock. I will agree that Civic springs are pretty much ****ty though. What is the OP wanting though? Handling, Looks, Drag racing?

Agree, using the stock struts/shocks is fine. Alot of people will tell you you have to get new but you dont, unless yours are shot to begin with.
