HFP suspension question

I would like to get the HFP suspension on my I4 2010 coupe and I know that it is recommended for the V6 only because of weight difference. Does any one have any pictures or proof on how different the front of the car will sit on HFP suspension with the I4 engine?

I also cant seen to find any one that sells an aftermarket strut for the 8th gen such as Koni, Bilstein, ect.

Also I have no plan to use coil overs... lol
Also searched with no luck

Coilovers will run you as close to what HFP is worth.

HFP suspension isnt worth the money for an I4, it will be higher due to weight difference.

They dont make any shocks for our cars yet. If you want to invest wisely then purchase coilovers. Better resale value, better value in general and adjust as you please.

Good luck

I dont understand why you want HFP suspension on an I4, what are your reasons? If you are trying to retain suspension warranty then a v6 part wouldn't apply for I4 applications if you run into trouble.

There was a member on this forum that's sponsored by SoundStream who has it, it looked fine but still higher. If you want springs then just get Eibach and call it a day.

Thank you. That was more of the answer I was looking for.

I would be nice if we had an aftermarket strut to use with Eibach or H&R spring because I will not lower my car in stock strut and blow them out.
