Coil overs will allow you to adjust height and dampening as you please. Plus it is a good investment towards your car if you're going to be driving it for a while

The question is this, is there anyone who knows a coil set up for a first gen 79 that will stiffen up the car for drifting? Too much body roll... I cannot start a new thread yet lol sorry
