Static vs bagged???

[E30SPDFRK]

I closed the last 2 and I'm closing this one too. Anyone else who makes the same thread will get a time out. If you have a problem with that feel free to pm me.


I'm closing them mainly because this has been covered many many times on this forum, but also because your lack of effort into the original post opens up this thread to stupid responses.

Bump one of the old threads if you are truly interested in the debate, but as soon as it stops being factual and turns into a shit show I'm going to close it.

Fidhle why are your jimmies rustled. Your car is sweet, you like it. That's all that matters. Believe it or not, some people have different tastes and interests. Some may be retarded (see rusting hoods, crazy camber, and purple civics) but at the end of the day does it really matter how they mod their cars?

[Fidhle007]

Look at my signature and tell me my car isn't low. It's low and I like it. But it's not slammed because guess what, I actually drive it! I don't drive it on the street much, just to local autocrosses and it gets trailered to the track in case something bad happens but I don't want to be thinking about the transition at Turn 3 either so the ride height is set to what I like to consider "Functional."

Bags are fucking stupid. Being slammed is fucking stupid.

I cannot reiterate enough how much the above statement is so true.

Lowering a car for improved aerodynamics, a lower center of gravity and better handling is cool. Slamming it to roll around with all the VW emotwats is dumb. Maybe I'm old but I like not dragging over things on my way to work...

And you're entitled to that opinion, and I respect that 100%. My dad has the exact same opinion on lowering a car. However, don't to come into a thread that is obviously geared towards people who like low cars and say things that are not productive and that's obviously going to start a fight. You sound like you just wanted to start a fight and that's what you got.

And I thought you put it perfectly the first time! Agree 100%.

Congrats, you made the same thread that was closed by someone that manages here. *Hoping it was Janderson <3

I'm sorry but I don't think it was right for the thread to be closed, and even more so to the point no reason was given for the thread being closed. Yes it was closed by someone that manages the site, but if they are doing something I don't think is right, I'm going to call them out on it, whether or not they have more power than me.

"Bags handle just as well as GC's" lololol

wanted opinions E30 Specific.

That was an E30 specific opinion above yours there...

Have you ridden in a bag setup? Because otherwise you're talking out of your ass.

I am a tech. I have ridden, and driven just about every suspension system available. I make a good living replacing bags on modern BMWs actually...

The two setups are completely different and you cannot say they handle the same. They might (if done well) handle well for their specific applications but that's the point: they're different setups.

[Mr_Tripp]

Being straight honest I think no one can speak on bag vs coils unless you have had both and even then its a still an opinion, so...... in my opinion its more about your style bags make sense cause you can be low and not have nightmares about speedbumps and potholes, but on the other side I know static guys and they all believe bags are cheating and you have to be low all the time. In the same boat are those idiots that think shattering oil pans and taking 20 min to get out of the drive way are badges of honor. So debating is just endless, like trying to argue whether red or blue is a better color.

My vert is bagged, My coupe has a very nice gc setup.

They both handle great, they both ride great. Having bags is very convenient. I recommend it to anyone if you have the means. I run a custom airlift setup with autopilot v2.

Also you're going to have a bad time if you only spent $900 on a bag setup. All said and done I have around $3500 into mine.

see guys, bags arent so bad.

Thread got closed for no reason what so ever. I'm sorry to whom ever closed the thread but that isn't right that just because you think a thread is dumb to close it. The guy wanted opinions from people and I think he has a right to that.

Bags vs static has been covered and beaten to death on just about any forum out there. Do a google search.
