guys i was wondering what the difference is between the stock suspension setup of an integra gsr and type r. I know i need to get new shocks and springs soon but i want to keep it as original as i can get it. i don't want it to be the same height but i also don't want it to be a snow plow. And i really like the stock height of the type r and think it would be just slightly lower than a gsr height. as you can see i am going for knoi and ground controls which seems to be a good setup so i will need some info on those heights for when i will do the install,. any help guys would be appreciated. thanks

EDIT: If this helps at all, a stock Type R is 15mmmm lower than a stock GSR.

15mm i believe is the correct figure

 

Does the ITR springs and shocks fit on GSR?

 

Yes you are right. Just checked it out at http://www.itrsport.com/

 

i was also thinkin of puttin some itr springs on my gsr. do you guys think this is a worthwhile mod if i can get them for cheap? keep in mind i'll still be using the stock gsr struts till i can afford some new ones.

 

no i don't think th r springs ould ve that great on the gsr struts and shocks. they are setup for a weaker spring rate and would bounce all over the place with the right hit. now what is the major difference between KONI yellow adjustables and KYB AGX's. besides price i have heard that they are pretty much equals when it comes to maintenance, adjustability, and performance. but no one can agreee to which one is better for the dollar. I know Koni's match right up with ground control coilovers but do the KYB's? i have not read any threads stating that there is a coilover system setup that matches directly with the KYB's? Anyone

 

Koni yellows are 'rebuildable' and the agx's are not. the agx's have notches for settings...and Koni's do not...sort of like analog to digital...analog being Yellows. More adjustibility.

also the ITR thing. I would have to go with it all or nothing. with the shocks, you have toget the ITR LCA aswell.

 

No, it would be better to just save and wait until you can do both at once.

 

thanks for all the helpful replies!
